                                                         ------------------------------------
🥕Botanical Name: Daucus carota One of the best for taste, quality and quantity - bumper crops with an outstanding delicious sweet flavour and bright smooth colour throughout the smooth cylindrical 'Nantes' type roots. Grows well in any open position in a light rich soil, preferably one which has not been recently manured (as they may fork). We hope you enjoy these vegetable seeds, just another great example of vegetable seeds from Mr Fothergill’s!

🥕How To Grow Sow seed 0.5in (1cm) deep in rows approximately 12in (30cm) apart. Keep soil moist and weed free. Thin the seedlings to one plant every 3in (7.5cm) and water well to replace soil around the roots. Repeat sow every two weeks for a continuous supply.

🥕When To Plant - All year round as required.

🥕Harvest - All year round as required.

🥕Sow - Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter You can also find My Veggie Garden at,

Planting corn and sunflower before the rain arrives

Rain has been predicted.

And nothing germinates seeds like rain and for this reason, if I've got plans to plant anything in the near future then I get them in a soon as possible.

In this instance, it's Corn and Sunflower.

Please cornsider excusing me but it's hard to pass up a bad corny joke or three.

Growing potatoes in a potato growing bag.


A complete guide to planting potatoes in a potato bag.

After finding two potatoes, while preparing dinner last night, beginning to produce shoots I decided to plant them out into potato growing bags.

 I've not used potato bags before so I'm as keen as you to see the results.

Bags were purchased from Bunnings for $9.97.

Tater time!


This can only mean one thing. You got it. It's tater planting time.

While getting the spuds ready for dinner last night I noticed they were starting to sprout so I cut the ends off and said, "I’ll have you".

The ol' fence pailing trick!

You guessed it.

The old, cover your freshly planted carrot seeds with a fence pailing because you had a rush of blood and planted in your work garden, on a Friday, before a long weekend, trick!

Anyhow, fingers crossed this will keep the soil and seeds moist enough until I get back to work on Tuesday.

Growing a five crop micro-green rotation. Pt.2

Part two of an ongoing series of growing a five crop micro-green rotation.

Beginning with pea shoots then lettuce, rocket, radish and broccoli.

Some other micro-greens you could try are Beetroot, silverbeet, pak choi, amaranth, Chinese cabbage, kale, spinach, sunflower and turnip.

I buy my seeds, D.T. Brown, from The Reject Shop.

There is more than enough for me in a packet but if you'd like larger quantities then Eden Seeds will supply larger quantities If you need.
