From checking social medias, im the least prepared of all the people taking part in the outside variety of #DownloadTV... They all have tents and gazebos, im just sat in the rain with basic greenhouse seed trays protecting the electrics, with occasional diving in the kitchen during the worst. . Ok i dived under the parasol to type this as its coming down hard again, i won't change, be immature and stupid your whole life! DO NOT EVEN GROW UP! says the man sitting in the rain listening to Black Sabbath . . #download #download2020 #download20 #DownloadAtHome #drownload #dl20 #metalfestival #rockshow #livemusic #gig #metalhead #punk #rockandroll #summer #britishsummer . #likeforlike #likesforlikes #l4l #doubletap https://www.instagram.com/p/CBVqrRYpL22/?igshid=jcyiwo6piuy4

Planting update time.. Its been a while, but its all go now the sun has started coming out again. Perfect timing with all this lockdown isolation corona virus stuff, the plants on the windowsills are now moving out to the greenhouse...

First up, the Jalapenos, Hungarian Hot Wax and Cherry Red Peppers are outside in the greenhouse in bigger trays now they have sprouted well.

There was a problem with the Cayenne peppers i planted first, i dunno why but after they sprouted well they all started to wither and die. I moved the last 2 alive looking ones in to their own pot and added a few new seeds to keep them company (or replace the older ones when they die)

We have new additions since the last update, we have strawberry plants and lettuces. I got both of these from the garden centre, I've just moved them into bigger pots.

I hope that the lettuce pot is big enough for them, the packet said they want alot more room but i ain't got the space to do them properly. We will see what happens, maybe mini lettuces are a thing.

The original onions i planted kinda died as well. They went all limp and never regained their upwardness, so i cut my losses on them and replanted new seeds and will keep them outside. I think my main problem was i wasn't giving them enough water inside on the windowsills.

But in other onion news, i got red onion sets from the shop and planted a few of them which have started to show signs of life. Also in that picture are the chives and spring onions which i seeded today. Chives being a easy to grow herb you can just cut off as when you need them, i got the seeds for free so we will see what happens.

The garlics are going well, about the only thing thats actually doing well really, its great news as i bloody love garlic. And if any vampires try to come for me i will be alright.

Another new addition is the radish, they are quick turn arounds, only being in the ground a few weeks befor harvesting these will be a reoccurring feature. I have pickled radishes in the past so may well do that again as they were tasty.

The cherry toms went a bit weak and limp indoors from the lack of proper watering (i think) so these guys have been moved outside to the greenhouse. I re seeded a couple replacing the potentially dead ones.

My girlfriends sunflowers are also in there starting their long journey upwards, world record sunflowers coming soon

The last new addition is a blackberry bush that was on reduced price in the garden centre. Its potted and just sitting out on the patio with the mint bush which is started sprouting some new shoots..

Planting update time...

This week i started the growing process by sowing seeds of the cherry tomatoes, onions and cayenne peppers

They're on the windowsills getting light and hopefully warmth. Only been a few days but potentially spotted some sprouted growth from the onions.

Hopefully after the storms the last couple of weekends the greenhouse will stay in place now, we did have a little moment where the greehouse blew away and i had to trap him in behind the bins for a few days, which did nothing as it still blew away. It has took a little bit of damage but hopefully nothing serious.

Another new addition is a mint plant that i bought from the supermarket. Im trying to sprout a 2nd plant from a stem i cut off, which will hopefully make it a bit more productive.

So thats it for the first update... Happy growing dudes!!

So as some of you may of seen on a tweet. I've got my little greenhouse up ready for a good years growing. kinda want to to share with the world my babies as i grow them. So Im going to use this page to share some updates.

As im sure you're all thinking, yes stardew valley has kinda inspired me to get back into growing stuff again. Back when i lived with my parents i used to grow stuff in the back garden, but now I'm older (hopefully im wiser) i have more plans for what im growing. Back in the day i grew jalapenos but other than a few chillis/curries i never really did anything with them, that's going to change this time.

So what am i growing? To start with im going to grow some easy stuff until i get back into the swing of things. I've got onions, spring onions, radish, tomatoes and various chillis. The plan is to get strawberries, mint and garlic and maybe potatoes. These are all dependent on space and maybe depending on skill.

When we start to harvest crop i want to get my pickling game back on track and also to make an attempt at making chilli sauce/powders.

So thats the plan. The plan is to sometime this week start some seeds going indoors on windowsills to avoid the frost. So keep your eyes peeled
