Rocket
As mentioned recently, I bought and planted a few rocket seedlings. I planted them in the same planter box that last year’s crop were in, and the seem to be doing well. Imagine my mingled surprise, delight and mild chagrin to find that last year’s crop has self-seeded (as my mum actually mentioned it might), and circa 100 tiny rocket plants have germinated among the handful of larger seedlings. So now I have rocket plants to spare if anyone would like any.

‘Scuse the ignorance, but what are rocket plants?
Off topic: Saw your twitter about dehumidifying the house and watering the garden at the same time. Reminds me of a sweet idea M Haverland had when I was staying there — she was going to pipe the waste from their waste disposal unit out the back onto the compost heap. Don’t think she ever got a round tuit.
Then again, it’s not hard to put one’s organic waste in a lidded ice-cream container and take it outside when it gets full.
A sort of (delicious) lettuce.
That is a good idea. Pre-chomped up kitchen waste would compost quicker, I imagine — more surface area.
Yes, please. You could bring round on Thurs before we head off and i could quickly plant em?
