🌱 Top tips for growing Rhubarb 🌱

➡️ You can grow Rhubarb anywhere! Bare roots Rhubarb can go straight into the ground at this time of year, but if you're low on space, you can grow them in containers too! ➡️ 'Forcing' Rhubarb Lots of vegetable-growers will 'force' Rhubarb - forcing them to come up earlier! To do this, simply pop a terracotta pot over your Rhubarb to block out the sunlight. #gardenjobs #allotment #vegetablepatch

How to chit seed potatoes! 🥔

🌱 What is chitting? Chitting is allowing your seed potatoes to sprout from their eyes. If you've ever kept potatoes in your pantry for a little bit too long, you'll know exactly what this looks like! 🥔 So, how do you chit potatoes? Place your potatoes eyes-up in a tray (such as a seed tray), and place them somewhere light and cool. Leave these for around 6 weeks until the shoots are around 1-inch long, and then they're ready for planting out!
