Today's blog post by Ella and Anija.
Today we weeded the raised garden beds ready to plant new vegetable seedlings such as broccoli, herbs, beetroot, lettuce, spring onions and bok choi. We put coffee grounds in the soil to feed the plants and and to keep the snails away.
Then we talked about what plants grow well together like carrots and spring onions. Next we planted all of the seedlings and some carrot seed tape. We also planted some potatoes with comfrey leaves underneath to protect them from insects.
The last thing we did was put name tags in the beds so that we would know where things are and what we are growing. We also did watering after that so the plants would grow well and be delicious. Today was a fun day.

Hi Gardening Club! It's great to read all about what you have been planting! I must take Room 1 round the back of our class to have a look at the vegetables you have planted today :) You've done a lovely job at making the garden look wonderful! Keep it up! :)
ReplyDeleteCool gardening
ReplyDeleteI like the sunflowers best of all. Are you going to save the seeds and eat them?
ReplyDeleteMaybe you are going to save the seeds for next year's planting.
They remind me of the sunflower that went flop.
