What you sow, so shall you reap! (hopefully)

You can grow passion fruit and melon in Scotland? You are indeed fortunate, Thinkzinc. I recall visiting friends in Aberdeen, and it was already sleeting in early October. Led me to believe that the growing season might be rather short up there.

Anyhow, more to the point: I had great success with Roma tomatoes last summer and plan to grow them again. I sow seeds in peat pots indoors and then plant them in large clay pots on the back deck. Wonderful stuff!

I am attempting to grow them. I haven't tried them before. As you say, the growing season is short, hence my attempt to get them started in the house just now I'll let you know how it goes - disastrously is probable!

ive started my onions , peppers, and parsley in peat pots. I use a grow lux light bar and the seeds respond nicely. we still have about 3 in snow outside but were gonna be in the upper 30s (F) today.

Ive got some new kinds of gourds for bird houses and stuff. im going to grow about an acres worth and then Ill have enough to give to friends and family , just for fun

Wow! An acre's worth? So you really are a farmer! I wish I had an acre
I have been considering buying special indoor lights to bring my plants on. But are they expensive to run?

Mrs. SealPoet is the gardener in this crew. I am the shovel, I dig where I am told.

But what she's (very!) busy growing this season is a new careeer as a Landscape Designer.
