Hi
I grew it at home with basal heat and a light. Now it is in an unheated greenhouse with fleece at night.
It's about 2 ft tall.

Hi, I have read the 2008 posts about pickling gherkins but my problem is with only one plant I only get a few the right size at any one time. I would really like to have a way of pickling a decent jar. I wondered about freezing until I had enough but all that water doesn't feel as though that would ...

Many thanks for all tips - ignoring the gloating!

Help only 3 parsnips!
Last year worked so well with a pink napkin in airing cupboard. This year new tank and no heat so tried propagator with seeds in damp napkin in a plastic bag. Only 3 germinated.
Where am I going wrong?

Carrots and spring onions also not up yet.

Any ideas?
Penny

not really sure what we are doing but they are up in some jiffy 7s so we'll see.
any thoughts glad of them

Kittens in proagator!

My Aubergine Seedlings

Feeling smug took my 5 aubergine seedlings out of propagator and put them on the radiator for a bit more light in the day.
Kitten knocked them off and broke all but one.

Thinking of putting kitten in propagator but fear it would love it!

ps on getting things out of gutters i so it in sections separating with trowel - seems to work for me. Penny

I have planted my 10 aubergine seeds form MoreVeg in 5 jiffy 7s in my new propagator. 3 are up, soo exciting.
Still wondering what to do with potato seeds?
