  • EOSPETE from East Lancs

    Hello to the forum.
    I am very new to growing here in East Lancs.

    Autumn 2010 project was to start herbs indoors ready for developing a herb bed in March 2011. I have chive, parsley, rosemary, bush basil, sage, lovage, mint growing inside on the sill ready for its moment.

    Spring project 2011 is baby leeks, baby parsnips, onion and small amounts of carrot, chard, radish. I would love to get some bush type tomato and aubergine as well.

    I was given some basic kit to get me started, a heated propagator, cupboard style grow house and a cold frame. I built myself 3 raised beds from salvaged wood and they are awaiting me. The garden only get afternoon sun but at least it runs east to west.

    I have spent the best part of today scouring the forums and have learned so much from them already and made copious notes.

    I look forward to learning more in 2011.

    Warm regards.

              thanks for the welcomes.
              there is not a spare space on my window sills at the moment and i am enjoying seed sprouting. fenusgreek and alfafa are my favs at the moment. i'm experimenting with rocket sprouts at the minute.

              i've got some douce provence seedlings that are around 8-10cm tall and i'm wondering if they are best outside in the cold frame to get more light.
              all the best.

                    Hi and welcome. Everyone on here is very friendly and helpful - often you don't even need to post a question, just searching through the old stuff is really illuminating!

                      Hello there

                      I have learnt so much here already. Everyone is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable

                      Am keen on herbs myself and am envious of your raised beds.
