Going to “Pot”

I have been planting on the rooted cuttings from the hot house. Can’t keep up with them. There has been a sudden surge of activity in the cuttings and I am wondering if the change in watering pattern has stimulated this. It helps too, that the number of severely hot days has diminished. Will need to be a little more scientific than I have been to work out what is happening.

Potting mix for the cuttings is always a continuing saga. Finding a mix that does not lose its  “wettability”, does not weigh a ton when wet, is open and well drained, is readily available to me without travelling great distances, or paying a fortune in delivery charges… I don’t really want much!

There is certainly a great deal of pleasure to be had in potting on seedlings and cuttings that I have sown and set myself. That goes for the vegetable garden, too!
