My squashes have germinated fantastically and are looking very sturdy. It is the pumpkins that I have had problems with. I have had two goes. Have just tried my OH's method of germinating "big" seeds, he puts some warm water on several layers of kitchen roll on a small plate, then a freezer bag encloses it which is blown into to create a bubble and tied up with a wire tag. This is then put somewhere warm and dark like the airing cupboard and lo and behold several days later the little dears start sprouting, ready to be put into some compost. Has worked for me as pumpkins now sprouting. :) busy_lizzie
what i cant understand is that they're called 'black beauty' which is normally an aubergine???? its an organic one from johnsons. can anyone shed any light on this...
I've got a nice lot of outdoor cucumbers coming up. I've always had trouble with slugs biting the stems off when I plant them out, so I probably need to grow them on a bit more under glass this year.
