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.

Will soaking seeds in seasol help?

I presoaked 3 x 6 pea seeds in 1, water, 2, powerfeed and 3, seasol in response to an article claiming that soaking in seasol will improve germination and seedling vigour.

The purpose is to establish if I can find any appreciable difference in the strike rate, the speed of germination and seedling vigour as claimed.

Will it work or not?

What to do when you have an idea but aren't sure if it is any good or if it will work or not? Call it a trial.

Today I planted two tomatoes into planting holes enriched with Searles 5 in1 product.

It's a new twist on an old idea I'd read about for using garden and kitchen waste materials to create compost planting holes for planting tomatoes in.
