Half Term Ideas





Wednesday was Gardening Day

Sorry not posted in a few days been super busy so here is my catch up over the last few days .......

On Wednesday we had a day of Potting plants and doing a bit of gardening ....as you can see our garden needed some attention.....

after we mowed the grass and had a  general tidy up me and Robert decided to pot some tomatoes ready for the summer .....






So I picked up these lovely little Tomato seed pots .... so we went to work getting one all set up ..... so the first step was emptying out some of the soil from the pot ......

Robert loved this part I had to get him to put it on a plate to stop the soil going everywhere.










once we got half of the soil out the next step was to add some water to the pot and make the layer of soil underneath damp to touch

Once the soil was damp enough we had to upon up the sachet of seeds that comes in the pot ...... you get four little tomato seeds in total which you have to spread out into each corner of the pots soil .....

Once you complete this step and you are happy with the seeds placement you then have to add the remaining soil you took out and place this over the seeds in the pot ....(plate came in very handy at this point )

Once all these steps are complete tidy up any mess and then place the lid back on the pot and place in the kitchen windowsill ready for the seeds to grow ... come back in a few weeks to see the next stage of these tomato plants ..... and if you fancy a go then enter my Half term Round up comp which is coming very soon ....
