Just a quick update;
At last the first tomato seedlings are big enough to transplant into the troughs and put on the window sill.
Now I have rocket seedlings in troughs on the living room window sill and tomato seedlings on the kitchen window sill.
I also have my first batch of lettuce seedlings on the kitchen window sill.  These little seedlings in the black pots are pretty special young fellows.
They are grown from seed that I harvested from my wonderful parsley plant last year. If the weather holds for just another couple of days I’ll be very tempted to transplant these red onion seedlings into the big black pots out side. They are still very small and young to be left out side but they are outgrowing these tiny trays. I just hope they are strong enough to cope outside; maybe I should cover them for the first few weeks of outdoor life.
And this morning I see the first signs that the pepper and chili seeds are growing, soon I shall be finding places fro them on window sills.
Making space for my 'food plants' means clearing away some of the decorative plants and that includes cutting and potting the spider plant babies.
Think it's time for another lunch time plant sale at work.
