It’s actually been really nice to chat about the smaller things that otherwise would of been taken for granted or not given a second thought about, and it’s definitely better than a covid chat/prince Phillip chat with it being quite in your face everyday. I’m glad it’s helped you in passing the shielding period ?
The “correct” way for plant watering is from the bottom up because (not sure how to word this bit) the roots are what suck up or circulate the nutrients provided from being fed – hope Iv got that right & it makes sense! (Just remember they grow from the root not the leaves so that’s what you want to aim to feed) When you purchase a pot sometimes you may notice they come with a tray they sit on, the tray is for watering the plant. It doesn’t matter too much as long as there not over watered, you will know if this happens as the leaves will start to go yellow. Iv been watering my sunflowers and apple plants root up but my cress, sweet pea flowers, strawberry sticks & carrot balls from the top and they are all doing perfectly fine ? I think it’s personal preference really or whatever is easiest, I think yours have been doing incredibly and am enjoying seeing the photos! Love Joss’s comment there ?
