Growing Vegetables Update

Our veggies are growing stronger each day. The tomato plant has transformed into a monster and is threatening to overgrow inside our flat. The beans will need replanting soon and something to grip to. The green capsicum has only been planted a couple a months ago and already fruitful.

Beans

When will they go red?

We've become that 'tomato' flat

And the capsicum

Growing Experiment Continued

Our growing bug has caught on, and we have expanded. We've managed to obtain more plants for hardly any expenditure. Some of them as you can see from the photos are getting a bit sun burnt.We also finally have our first tomatoes. The pea plants have sadly been starved of all the nutrients as the huge tomato plant has stolen the show. We have also planted several capsicum, and runner bean plants seeds. The runner beans should hav been sowed Nov-Dec but we still can expect a successful harvest in the coming months as the weather continues to improve.

The Beginnings of a Growing Adventure

A few months back now we planted a single tomato plant and heaps of pea seedlings. The tomato plant almost never made it and I've had to mount a heat lamp above it to help it make through the cold. At one point half of the plant just disintegrated. All of the peas we planted (about 50 seeds) to our amazement came up. We decided to redistribute them and the process of doing this killed ALL OF THEM except for one last fighting trooper. Not put off though we bought more pea plants, and now I can safely say about 70% out of the ones we bought made it and have just brought the first peas! 

Here is a montage of our progress and hopefully the beginnings of our little growing adventure:
