Growing your own fruit and vegetables is rewarding and the best is when you come to harvest what you’ve grown. But if you’re just starting out, it can be a bit of a minefield as you build your experience and learn what does and doesn’t work.
It’s the second year that I’ve grown zucchini from seed, and it still reminds me of the excitement I experienced when growing cress as a child. I watched the tiny black specks grow into white spikes with small mustard-tasting leaves and ate the freshly cut cress in egg sandwiches. I caught the growing bug at a young age!
