I got a few seedlings that I planted, cauliflower, white and red cabbage:

the indoor growing ones are okeish:

except the tomatoes, all shrink and dried and died:

so sad

I got myself this for watering it and every day at latest at lunch time I do it:

but the weather is warmer, soon time to plant the eggplants , peppers and I need also to buy some tomatoes seedlings, no stress.

Garden ready for

 So the compost arrived

and I was transporting it and drop it over the carton:

40 wheelbarrows here:

leveled it:

and today I started planting, onion, carrots, beans, spinach, rucola, dill, parsley, leak, lettuce and garlic:

what you see in the image above is that wherever I planted, I did that directly in the compost, I then covered with a thin layer of soil.

I also planted this blackberry thing, my son wanted it:

and in the weekend I made some ... we called it langosi, is a kind of simple donut, simple may be but is very tasty:) :

then yesterday went with my wife to this place where are many threes blooming with a lot of  white flowers.

and here we are today, just after I walked my dog:

Start

 Yesterday I got the mail with the seeds I will use for seedlings:

I already bought last days a tray ready with cups for seedlings and a bag of seed starting mix (

) from Gamma, so I put a part of the pot ground into a carton box and mixed it with

some lukewarm water, then I filled 3/4 of each cup in the tray with it,

and since it has 40 cups I seeded 25 with cabbage

and the rest, 15, with cauliflower seeds,

both types of seed in/at like 1/2 cm depth, put just a bit more of

lukewarm water and put the tray in my attic, high on a cast:

I hope there will be a good spot as it is warm but also some light for later on, I wished it was more but yeah, what can I do.

As you can see I started with cabbage and cauliflower because I plan to seeds it both at the end of February or start of March, if the weather helps like in the last years, if not a bit late and so the seedlings will not grow way to much and start to complain...

garden

So from 1st Jan will have a (p)lot of land, a 75m² size one.

I am planning to have a no-dig garden. I will look from January for carton boxes, also will order the compost when I get an email about it from my community garden leaders ;)

I already ordered my seeds, the ones that will be planted directly into the earth later next year, around march, depending also on the weather, here in Netherlands sometimes the February is the coldest month, and it is is the only one that can bring the real ice.
