Update on tomatoes, lettuce and cucumber plant on my balcony garden.
I over sowed tomato seeds this year.. 50+ when I should have done around 12. It meant I spent too much time trying to donate plants.
That meant I was focusing on finding new homes rather than spending time growing more. Growing for me is about learning skills but also slowing down and relaxing which is very needed in these chaotic times. I will remember not to overstretch myself again.
I'm trying lettuce for the first time and it's doing really badly. Slow growing and wilting. I think it's lack of light as I don't feel I'm under or over watering. Any experienced growers have any ideas?
Loving the cucumber plant. It's given us two so far and another two are growing. It's also developed a relationship with a neighbouring tomato plant. Very cute.
How's your growing going?

Hope everyone's well. I'm keeping off tech as much as possible, prioritising inner peace and in person activities.
I'm getting the balcony garden prepared for winter. The Regenerative Grower's guide to garden amendments https://chelseagreen.co.uk/book/the-regenerative-growers-guide-to-garden-amendments/ is a great resource for recipes for amendments to improve soil biology, nutrients and plant health. Using things like egg shells nettles and dandelion plants I'm having fun making some to rejuvenate the soil from last season's growing. I've also put in cover crops seeds and mulches.
Also been seed saving tomato seeds and taught the community centre growers it as well. The centre is looking for funding to try and expand the work we did this year which would be great.
How's your growing going?
