I’m excited to announce my second Seed Sow Along Video for January – Sowing Cauliflower Seeds and I’m even getting the hang of speaking on camera now!
If you can’t wait to see the Video, Watch Now!
Otherwise there’s another link at the end of this post.
I was thinking about some of the new skills I’m gaining whilst doing these Seed Sow Along videos and it is similar to starting to Grow Vegetables for the first time.
When we we do things for the first time, we feel uncomfortable, out of our depth and overwhelmed, but if we keep on pushing through, doing one step at a time and then repeat, we get there in the end!
Vegetable growing is like any new skill, it’s a personal learning journey, it’s not just the plants that will be growing, you’ll be growing with a new skill, new knowledge to pass on to others and gaining new excitement seeing your seeds grow.
Motivation
So here’s some motivational words to keep you growing!
I don’t know where to start….. Just Start Somewhere, for example – go and buy a packet of seeds for a vegetable you like eating.
I don’t know what I’m doing…. Use my Sow Along Videos to sow your seeds and leave the rest to them to grow! Nobody knows what they are doing to start with.
I don’t have enough time to sow seeds…. Break it down into smaller tasks. If you want to grow Tomatoes, look at Tomato seeds, buy them in the next month and you’ll be ready to sow in Late February/March.
Back to the Cauliflowers
Cauliflowers are easy to grow but are intermediate on the growing difficulty level.
This is only because you will need netting and hoops or a cage to put the netting over to protect your plants from frost and cabbage white butterflies from April to October. More about this topic on the video.
