From tiny seeds in the greenhouse to strong little capsicum plants 🫑 I have been lucky to harvesting capsicums last few years and I must say well drained soil and plenty of sun will do wonders.

Who else is planting their spring veggies?

Save this for your next rose pruning day!

Getting a head start on spring

Today I’m sowing poppies and a few varieties of beans using seed-raising mix with a little vermiculite. I like to moisten the soil first, then sow the seeds so they aren’t disturbed by heavy watering afterwards.

From my little greenhouse to the garden 🌱🍅🥒

My cucumber and tomato seedlings are finally ready to be planted! And here in Sydney, it’s getting a little warmer too 🥰🥰

So make sure to add a little Blood & Bone while planting, finishing with sugarcane mulch to help retain moisture, then giving everything a good drink.

Now the exciting part begins… watching them grow!

Are you starting your spring veggies yet?
