Green Fingers

As I'm not chucking my ring up every hour or so this year, I started off sowing seeds a few weeks ago. I've got tomatoes, courgette (zucchini) and peppers planted, although made the mistake of putting the pepper seeds direct into a trough outside, and now we've had some cold nights so might have to re-sow. I'm hoping that because nothing is above the soil level yet they may be OK.

Anyway, pics or it didn't happen, right? ;)

    I did not see these delightful items when at your house last week, therefore I conclude that you stole them! Yes! It's totally not that I'm unobservant, oh no. :P

    Nice reused butter tubs XD

    Well if you will spend your time eating cheesecake and on the phone you will miss things ;) I've seen them, and judging by the expression on his face Hex is looking forwards to nibbling them too.
    Can't wait for my first courgette omelette Jem :o)

    They look great Jem, I hope they'll survive the cold. And home grown vegetables taste so much better! I also plan on sewing some vegetables in my hideous-hot-pink-planters.

    Well now it's matter of seeing them grow, and how well they taste. Good luck green fingers!

    Aw, baby plants are so cute. I have terrible luck with plants. It's best they just never enter my house.

    Woot! :D I want to do this at some point, too. Satisfying to grow your own food, methinks.

    I wish I could plant things. People tell me I am nurturing, but I kill plants like whoaaaa.

    Ooh, that's awesome! I am so jealous because I don't have space in my tiny apartment to have a garden.

    I have not one ounce of greenthumb in me at all. My plant skills go as far as accepting a bouquet of roses, taking care of them until they start to die.. and then hanging them so they can dry out and I can have flowers all year long. :)

    Although I have given thought to some tomato, cucumber and dill weed plants. Just.. don't ask me to plant and/or maintain.

    Make me some salsa when yours are already!

    Hi, Jem, I know this is kind of a random question, but since you know how to code and stuff, but could you please do some sort of tutorial on the navigation that Morphix.si has?

    I keep seeing it on other websites and I'd really like to know how it's done, or at least what it's called.

    Again, sorry for the random question!

    I'm trying to grow three different sorts of peppers at the moment, but I'm still waiting for them to sprout. It's been six days though, how long do seeds usually take to pop up? Once mine are done, I think I'll post pics too!

    :-)
