Not Greenfingered

Three of the coriander seedlings have been transplanted to bigger pots.

First off, I put the copper tape around the bottom of the pots - and it wasn't a thing of beauty. The best I can say is that it looks like an attempt was made. 

The coriander wasn't looking very happy. 

I didn't get a pic of the salad, but that wasn't thriving much. Mind you, it's only day two of being planted out. 

Bear had an exam today, A level Maths. He came home feeling confident, so keeping everything crossed for him. He was pleased because I'd made another banana and chocolate chip loaf and it went very nicely for supper. 

So while today wasn't brilliantly active, small steps continue. 

Hugs and good health to all.

  1. I found that putting vaseline around my pots kept slugs away really well.

  2. I think you're doing really well. I can't even keep a flower alive.

    1. Thank you. I'm hoping I can keep these going a little while.

  3. I've used copper tape in the past, not pretty but it seemed to work. Well done with surviving the maths exam.

    1. Watching son do A levels is harder than taking them myself.

  4. Baby steps matter! My mother was fond of saying, "Little drops of water, little grains of sand..." I tried to grow coriander, once, and all my seedlings turned yellow and died!

    1. You're right, baby steps matter. I'm keeping an eye on them.
