Small Grow Bags With Big Benefits. March 15, 2014. Over the next few months the snow may hit and its important that we look after the wildlife in our gardens. One of the easiest things to do is to feed the birds. My granny always used to feed the birds when I was younger, walking around her garden in Wales you would find hidden bird tables and hangers full of pea nuts. She and my grandpa turned into avid bird watchers as there garden was always teaming with birds. You’ll need –. Lard or suet bowl. Melt s...

Small Grow Bags With Big Benefits. It’s cold, wet and miserable! January 20, 2014. Firstly Happy New Year! I know we are nearly half way through January already but I am not sure where the time has gone? The weeks seem to be flying by and as yet I haven’t thought about my garden or the year ahead. I am conscious that I have completely missed planting of spring bulbs. Last year I planted lots of daffodils in some See It Gro. I have two growing calendars pinned to my board at work and I have spent the morn...

Small Grow Bags With Big Benefits. June 28, 2013. Its been a while and my garden is thriving. I thought I’d give you a quick update on how things are going…. Below shows how much everything has grown over the last month in my first raised bed. I’m regularly picking herbs, lettuce, rocket and pak choi and have already had my first strawberry. Cabbages – These have started to fill out and look healthy. One has been attacked by a snail but I can’t seem to find it to destroy it! My dad gave me some baby pota...

Pumpkin Soup | see it gro

Small Grow Bags With Big Benefits. November 4, 2013. I am a huge fan of Halloween and always decorate the house with carved pumpkins and decorations. It was great to see that this year everyone seemed to go crazy for Halloween and every shop and restaurant was decorated to the max. On Sunday I still had a small pumpkin left that had been neglected when it came to carving time so I decided to put it to good use and make a spiced pumpkin soup. 1 tbsp of fresh ginger. 2 tbsp of fresh coriander. There was pl...

GYO in June | see it gro
https://seeitgro.wordpress.com/2014/06/18/559
Small Grow Bags With Big Benefits. June 18, 2014. June has to be one of my favourite GYO months. Conditions have been so growy this Spring perfect combination of rain, sun and (so far) not too much wind to damage some of our taller veggies. My See it Gro bags are thriving with a weekly feed, and an eye kept on the watering such a great and easy way to grow. If only I had a few acres instead of a few plants….A tip to improve the flavour of your berries is to just increase the fertiliser slightly...Our gro...

Small Grow Bags With Big Benefits. April 15, 2014. Below is some good facts I read and thought I would share with you all.

Small Grow Bags With Big Benefits. It takes a lot of soil to fill a raised bed! June 3, 2013. Never, ever, underestimate how much soil it takes to fill a raised bed! It takes a lot of time, a lot of muscle and you need to be prepared to get very dirty and hot! The beds were kindly put into place by my brother and I could finally get my teeth into the planting. First I lined the beds with thick plastic making a number of drainage holes in the bottom. From left to right…. Courgettes, rocket, purp...I love ...

A long hot summer | see it gro

Small Grow Bags With Big Benefits. A long hot summer. September 10, 2013. So the rain and chill of Autumn has finally arrived. It’s sad that the lovely hot summer we just had is coming to an end but to be honest we should count ourselves lucky; they say we have had one of the best summers in 7 years so we can’t complain. We have also done well with tomatoes (my favourite) and beans which have grown at an alarming rate long the fence between our flat and next door which are now keeping both parties in con...
