Join richard in this weeks podcast in which Richard shares the seed of the month Pumpkins. Richard also shares the latest from the kitchen garden and his thoughts on this months book of the month.
Over the last week, while Richard inspected his young plants he noticed some white aphids on his chillies. While only a small infestation it was time to take quick action. Richard used an organic pesticide which worked within a day but wasn’t Richards preferred choice.
Richard also needed his kitchen table back with family over for mothering Sunday. This table was full of plants so Richard went out and bought a vegtrug nursery to house his plants outside, but still undercover. So far so good.
Pumpkins are a delicious and easy to grow edible, but often over looked as used for Halloween carvings. Well Richard prefers to grow food and this month Richard delves into growing pumpkins.
