I need to invest more time into putting up some garden threads. This is great, thanks for sharing @Luseth .

 

My mum has a love for gardening and I do too enjoy seeing lovely gardens, just never knew where to start. I'm probably more into growing nice flowers than vegetables, etc, but you are tempting me to restructure the garden so we have a small patch for growing some things. I think it would help the kids too learn new things.

 

Where do you get your flower seeds from?

Maybe we could have a few Garden challengers , the basket I did was in a challenge on a facebook group I’m in. Ive not been in it long, but from looking around, they tried to grow carrots in pipes lol, strange but seem to turn out ok. Might give it ago next year. 

Hardest part for me in growing is really knowing when to start with veg and plants... I don’t seem to have patience, I like my flowers to flower right away lol, that’s prob why I buy for shops and grow from seed lol

Wow you got lots of veg there, I’m to old for an allotment, I have enuff with garden, can I ask? What’s the purple spike looking plant called, it’s very nice. 

Like ive said, I just plant and pray, mostly they do seem to grow, but I couldn’t say what each flower is called lol. I have taken some seed pods from some plants for next year, not really done much from seed, just normally buy from shops or garden centre.

Is good to see you here on the forum Mazzer, hopefully you pop by here more often. Always nice to hear from people. 🙂

 

Shame your carrots never turned out as well as you had hoped. 

I'm sure @Luseth  has plenty of good gardening tips to share.

I would imagine the soil plays a big part in it, but I'm no gardener and dunno what I'm talking about really lol. 

It’s nice to be here again, I just forgot all about it, fog brain and old age lol..... I will do my best to come by more often .... it all depends on how interesting you lot are lmfao. 

I did put the carrots in compost maybe it was to rich, but I will give them another go next year..

I’ve been a member for some time now but never really came to site, had to start a new account as couldn’t remember other one lol, I’m not the best gardener , I plant and pray. I did try carrots but sadly they never grow, but I did try to do them in a basket I found in house lol.... I really hope you can find some photos I’d love to see how your garden and allotment turned out,

Found this one... Wow forgot how nice it looked.

I do a little gardening myself but nothing like you, I was wondering how everything turned out as no photos were posted... I did this, this year... in a laundry basket, turned out pretty good, I’ll see if I can find a better photo..
