Shoots and leaves...
The whims and woes, highs and lows, of trying to grow fruit and veg in Nordic latitudes.
The parsley will be planted out in the vegetable garden in May.
The Little Gem lettuce will go into a raised bed in the cooler end of the polytunnel (as soon as the weather warms up) I will keep the watercress indoors: the water needs to be changed regularly and the shoots need to be cut and used to keep the plants growing. If successful I might try growing some outdoors, in one of the springs or streams in Pojo but they would have to be protected from the wildlife! I have also planted some Microleaf Radish Sangria - radishes that are grown for the shoots and eaten on salads or in sandwiches (a bit like cress). These are grown on kitchen paper on a tray and can be cut after 7-14 days. Presumably they taste like radishes: slightly peppery.
