We're half way through 2020 i and its time for a new Plan/Challenge to myself and anyone else who'd like to join me in growing their own 6-Pack.
The aim is to sow seeds of a Root, shoot, fruit and leaf every week in a 6 module pack (or 6 pots or 6 anythings).
Who's that in the back? What did you say - "There's only 4 things?" Glad you asked - the other 2 are for a herb and a flower.
Just a few seeds in each module - for example a few beetroot (Root); a pinch of spring onions (Shoot); a couple of peas (Fruit); a few cabbage seeds (Leaf), some parsley (Herb) and Calendula (Flower).
I'm hoping that I won't feel overwhelmed by pricking out/potting on/planting out if I have small quantities to deal with at any time. Some of the modules could be planted out intact in the GH or ground, depending on the time of year. Also regular sowings of small quantities will avoid gluts and ensure continuity of cropping - that's the theory anyway.
I'll start this weekend.
You're welcome to join me!!
