Jilly's Garden Works
Hi, my name is Jill, I have my own garden
Business, which is called "Jilly's Garden Works", its been up and
running for the past 3 years, I look after gardens that need a bit of minding,
like weeding , digging, planting up etc.
My love of gardening started when I was
quite young, my Dad had a big long garden , and every year he planted lots of
potatoes, beeetroot, cabbages,onions, carrots, lettuce, spring onions, peas and
beans.
I used to sit and pod peas with him for
our dinner , which were always yum!!
And from that I think that is where
my love of gardening came from.I only have a tiny garden,
and have to grow all my vegatables in pots and containers, but they grow well,
and only last year I had my first crop of spuds which were really good.
So , from an early age there is nothing
to stop you from growing your own vegatables, flowers, and they are so easy to
do.
Starting off :
- Just get yourself a old icecream
container or two.
- Punch in a few holes for
drainage,a couple of packets of seeds .( you could split
them with a friend, and they could grow some too)
- A bag of compost and set the seeds,
keep them on a bright windowsill, not somewhere in direct sunlight or they
will bolt and root.
- Once they start to grow , remove
them from windowsill, and let them become bigger, then transplant them on
into a container and water well, and watch them grow and soon you will have
your own vegatables!!!
- You will need to feed them , there are
lots of different feeds available , but I try to use organic if i can,
something with seedweed in it is always good.
Happy Gardening!!!!
