My two very precious Ghost Chilli Pepper seeds, given to me in a taped shut plastic CD wallet; classy
So, this is what is currently in my seed box and I am going to have to choose what to plant.
Before I go into that, however, look what arrived for me to help me growing my Ghost Chilli Peppers:
My shiny new heated propagator for growing my Ghost Chilli Peppers in, amongst other things
I am going to plant my two seeds in this right after completing this blog post, and I will be back with a post about that tomorrow.
I have been collecting toilet rolls to use as planters for carrots and parsnips. My seed review has revealed that, where I thought I had some, I really don't so this will now go onto my shopping list.

Last little updates, while at the shop just now I picked up a growing Chive plant and we wanted an adult Coriander plant so we have one of those also; the thought being we do not know how long it will be until the home-grown coriander will be ready to eat.
CD wallet keeps the seeds protected and the moisture out just fine ;) I'll be sure to buy some seed transportation packages next time. I did consider a pen lid.
ReplyDeleteHah there was no criticism implied... as I said, it was a "classy" choice :)
DeleteYou'll be happy to know that my potting compost is currently warming up on the heated propagator preparatory to planting :)
