“If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly our whole life would change.”…Buddha
Keeping a plant in the house is said to improve your mood, we as a race are meant to see greenery and not spend all our time looking at concrete.
At present I take care of 2 chilli plants, one which seems to take over every pot I move it into. The other takes a slower approach to growth and produces much larger chillies.
After 2 good crops last summer, I dried out a few chillies to plant out to increase the chilli plant numbers. These precious seeds have been put into a propagator, with some strawberry and aubergine seeds (from a packet).
It’s been just under a week since the seeds were planted and it is possible to see some growth already.
Last march I planted some sweetcorn for a celebration of coursework ending but still being in the house. Without thinking through the size that the corn would grow too I kept the plants on my desk until I went home.
By May they had all grown 1 ft tall and were replanted into much larger pots. By August they were at least 4-5 ft tall and starting to produce cobs. The experience of watching these plants develop from tiny seeds to 5 ft high plants was amazing.
Sometimes all it takes is a seed, to help get a new perspective
That’s All For Now
