Well, after the freebies on Saturday it was time to get chitting.
Tools required? Well, as far as I was aware, all I would need was the following:
- A couple of egg cartons or equivalent container
- The spuds
- A nice dark cupboard at room temperature
Put 'em all together and what have you got?
This:
A pretty uninspiring shot I'm sure you'll agree but it's not supposed to be gracing the front cover of Vogue. It' a bunch of potatoes.
I'll leave those bad boys in there for a couple of weeks and check back soon.
Growing anything else?
Nice of you to ask.
There's gonna be chillis. Loads of them.
Ordered some on eBay a few days back as it looked like a steal.
20 varieties, 5 seeds of each. Habaneros, Fresnos, Scotch Bonnets. The whole shebang.
Bought some peat pellets to grow them in too. Never used them before but thought they looked pretty convenient, so why not?
Here's the seed packets, reconstituted pellets and the name sticks (made from a Domino's Pizza box, how very frugal!)

| Chilli Collection Well, got them planted, now it's just a waiting game. We'll see how we get on but I'm not holding out much hope due to the bloomin' British weather but I should really be an optimist with this sort of thing. |
