Earth hour

And to commemorate I've sown some seeds:

Saturday, 27th March 2010

The 5 biodegradable pots at the top are of Sunflowers (Sungold from Mr Fothergill's) and the bottom two have 2 seeds each of Marigold ('Moon' from Thompson and Morgan)

1 tray of alpine strawberry (whole pack, approx 80 seeds from Mr Fothergills)

The first 6 modules are chilli seeds that I got free from Wahaca (restaurant). The top 2 modules in the second column up till the 4th contain Tsoi Sim seeds and the final 8 modules are planted with Kailaan (both from realseeds.co.uk)

6 seeds of Latah early tomatoes (from realseeds.co.uk) are in the clingfilmed and wrapped in leftover fruit protecters to keep the clingfilm in place, the other two pots contain 3 tubers of tiny ginger rhisomes leftover from the ones I used to cook (from Hampton Farmer's Market)

Seeds planted 2 weeks ago or so

2x little plastic pots of basil sweet genovese (seeds from Wilkinsons)

the 3 pots in the middle are sweet pea 'superstar' from Thompson and Morgan

1x shallow plastic tray spring onions (white lisbon from Wilkinsons)

First 2 columns are no show 'Superstar' sweet peas from Thompson and Morgan, the next 8 modules are of purple sprouting broccoli (from Wilkinsons) and the final 2 columns are Acidanthera Peacock Orchid bulbs from Poundland

1 tray (24 modules) pak choi (choko f1 from Johnsons cooks oriental garden range) pictured here with some spring onions from Waitrose that I've used the tops of and kept in water to resprout (it worked), a terracotta pot of 5 bittergourd seeds from a bittergourd melon I got from Chinatown (clingfilmed and wrapped in polystyrene webbing to keep the clingfilm in place as well as keep the pot warm) and my curry leaf plant from Malaysia.
