My sister gets green fingers too.
Green fingers appear to be contagious: my sister too has started container gardening. My mum has grown her some lettuce, strawberries, chillies, herbs and spinach. In other news, yet another downpour has hit Norwich and I am starting to become seriously concerned for my bean seedlings. I still have some seeds so I might plant them in a small container of soil inside and then transplant them when they are large enough to withstand the Norwich monsoons.
@AgonyPlant has solved the mystery of the spinach pest. Apparently I have leaf miner. I can see the little blighters burrowing around in the leaves. I have picked out the affected leaves and some of the worst affected plants to see if that helps. The spinach did need thinning anyway so I guess every cloud has a silver lining, and in Norwich at the moment there are a fair few clouds. Hoping for sun, Ele
Rainy Norwich
