I think I'll be buying a new greenhouse soon, as things are really taking off. Hell, before I buy a new greenhouse I need to buy new seed trays! The top shelf of the growhouse is full:
These are Hubster's cuttings - I helped him to learn how to take cuttings of rosemary, lavender, sage and marjoram, and I'm religiously spraying them each morning as Jekka McVicar says to! We ate our way through so many Tesco Value strawberry yogurts, and they've made brilliant pots for the cuttings. The cuttings are all doing really well and putting out new growth - I've never been that great at propagation from cuttings, so it's quite a kick for me to see this even though they're not my plants.
I was a bit snobbish with my own seedlings though - I have some Coffea arabica, and I used "proper" pots for them!
I have plants on two of the other shelves, and that's before I sow all the seeds I got in the JungleSeeds sale (all four Magnolia and all two Bauhinia species they sell). Maybe I'll just be storing them until the spring...
