Planning on doing mine today. The accredited minders have just had a nice gardening set delivered which includes watering cans, chidrens gloves and gardening tools and tomato plants and a pile of planters. Sending Hubby out in the garden all weekend clearing space ready for getting it all unpacked

Happy Chitting everyone!

Well, now that I have googled chitting, I can tell you, no I'm not!
We have decided against growing potatoes this year as we have run out of garden area that has not been previously used for potatoes and we ended up with our own version of the great Irish potato famine last year. Whilst I am all for teaching children about history, I don't think we need another re-enactment.
Good luck with all your crops, I am sure they will all do great.

**Pudding Girl** · 03-03-2010, 10:27 AM

They have provided us with grow bag type things so no need for famine!

I chitted on Monday as I have most children then so everyone could get involved. The under 5s chitted in the morning with the Rocket and after school with the over 5s doing the Vale Emerald - so a bit of healthy competition going on. They are also taking it in turns to do the weather chart everyday - oh such excitement

Hi i am chitting but i was wondering do you all use the plastic sacks provided, I have considered using our old re-cycling red boxes (we now have 3 bins each) instead. I thought they might be a bit more robust. Or could i put the plastic sacks inside my red boxes.

I have never grown anything before, if there are any gardners out there do you have any advice.

ours are chitting! We only had 2 mindees during the day yesterday, 3 years and 2 years so got them painting the egg boxes and they are now all nice a colourful in the window with the potatoes in them

**caz3007** · 03-03-2010, 03:49 PM

We have had potatoes growing in our compost bin and lovely they were too, it was by accident
