Planting into small bags, potting and shopping

Went to homebase and came back 45.10 (including 20% discount) quid worse off

Rough running total: 185+45.10 = 230

Yet more stuff to worry about

But with potatoes, garlics (so that we know it actually works in this country), hoops for the sweet peas, more compost, and of course more herbs (sadly only one season so destined not to last
- should read this http://herbgardens.about.com/od/troubleshooting/tp/10Mostcommonmistakes.htm
) and a bit of plant food/fertiliser (Jamie) - hopefully not bad for the plants.


Round carrots - http://www.wikihow.com/Grow-Carrots-in-Pots
harvest in 12 weeks but from seeds would be better so I will put these in a bucket along with some carrot royal chantery and plant nasturtiums nearby so that aphids visit those instead

- but now I have to be super careful about not crushing the foilage as it would attract the carrot fly and cover up any roots that appear.

Weeding was the next chore on
as was sowing the seeds for
(striato d'italia) courgettes,  and possibly white brocolli

Haven't thought this through
Next experiment co-planting some in large bags and consulting this list of companion plants
