We have two mid sized tubs growing a mixture of salad leaves now. Surprisingly, they are sprouting and growing really well. We believe that it is mainly due to the soil we use. Davinez gave us some sheep manure and trust me its the best soil to grow your vegetables or herbs. Once we have [...]

Remember my mushroom kit? It has been over 2 weeks now and the mushrooms have grown. I did not expect it to grow this large in size. I guess if we harvested it earlier then we get smaller mushrooms? But i think this is the biggest it will grow as it is becoming brown, so we [...]
