Growing things

I have started growing 'micro greens'. We have been growing bean sprouts for a while as a good quick way to have tasty veg for stir fry and salads. Micro greens are an extension of this where you plant the seeds in a very thin layer of compost and eat the leaves what grow. We have had broccoli raab (not actually broccoli) as well as broad beans and chickpeas.

I have also tried planting some strawberries in to horse poo (quite well matured). Possibly it might turn out to be too strong and rich for them, we shall see.
