Title: I've run out!
Post by: aquilegia on April 07, 2005, 15:28:47
I think something's telling me it's time to stop. Either that, or Mr Aqui has hidden them all...

I've run out of module trays, potting compost, medium sized (approx 4-6in) pots, window sill space and mini greenhouse space.

It's fortunate that I'm busy again this weekend, so I won't have time to do any more, because, well, I can't!

I've been gradually turfing hardy plants out in the cold. But now even the mini greenhouse is full (I could build the new one, but I don't actually have anywhere to put that!)

And because I've run out of suitably sized pots and compost, two of my lettuces had to go in the ground without any hardening off. It's a little experiment (honest) to see if Hugh Jones's coffee trick does work (they are in my potato patch that I coffeed a few weeks back!) I'll report back on that...

(as an aside, I was unsuccessful in sawing through my thumb while hacking back the buddleia. I almost managed to chop it off, but got away with a painful de-skinning instead. Really must get that tetanus jab...)

Poor Aqui, quite deprived! Well, sounds as if you have enough  to be getting on with until some seed pots/space etc become vacant.

I'm envious as due to the move have only got some baby sweet peas this year, but when I get a mo I'm off to Tim's to get some trays...

Mind those fingers and watch out for the weather,

Love CLx
