my poor little carrots have died (well half of them are mysteriously flattened). they're in a pot so I know it wasn't the cat. I think the rain was just too hard for the poor lil guys. I came out this morning and what a sad, sorry sight it all was. And I'd been so excited (and, okay, admittedly, darn impressed with my green fingers).
Well, I've brought the pot in, with some of the carrots still bravely upright, and I've brought in my one lettuce, and I might have to bring everything else into our little conservatory.
Got to admit ... I didn't think veg growing would be so heart-wrenching!
Of course ... maybe I was a bit over-eager with the seeds. I looked at them, tiny things as they are, and figured one probably wouldn't do the trick, so went for the multiple-seed-one-hole approach. Maybe not a good idea?
