Neat - they like it cool and if you get bugs add some coffee grinds to the soil....

@fun4us2b I also add egg shells too

@MiraRoss That's good plant food...I've seen online where people grow seedlings in a neatly cracked shell and then plant the whole thing....

@fun4us2b I water them every now and then with banana water too

@MiraRoss that's new to me!

@fun4us2b if you eat bananas soak the peal in water a few hours and water your plants it's like fertiliser

@fun4us2b its definitely worth looking into thats why my potatoes grown so fast.ive just done some pepers

@MiraRoss That's great - my pepper seeds didnt work, so I will get a couple of plants from the nursery - I like the skinny sweet Italian peppers...

@fun4us2b my last lot was eaten by a cat at the start of the year so now I've got my soil sorted decided to try again
