postheadericon Celery

Really disappointed about the celery as this is really the first of the big disasters this month along with the long carrots not showing up after 3 weeks of being planted and poor germination on the stump variety in the tunnel. I'm afraid we had a bit of a heatwave after a cold night so the propagator lid (turned off mind you) was left on and by mid morning the celery had pretty much been destroyed. This is the problem when you live a distance from your poly tunnels and veg.

I do have a 2nd and 3rd sowing that i can prick out but they are looking a bit late now, i just hope i can get enough and they grow fast ready for the shows.

I have plenty of other celery that didn't die that isn't really good enough for showing, typical.




My second sowing might make it on time we will see (again bad luck poor germination on this lot)
