  • Globe Artichokes fertilizer....

    I am planning an artichoke bed and planted 6 seeds in Feb I had three to pot on into MPC first tow true leaves up when I potted on.... But now those first true leaves are dying back, a third leave on each plant is present. I known from reading around they can be temperamental but I also read about giving them a weak fertiliser. Please forgive my beginners brain but in the house I Blood, fish and bone, chicken pellets and left over tom feed from last season would any of these be any good?

    I have planted more seeds this month and have one plant that I received from a multi pack lucky dip last year, was trying to get a few more for the bed.

    Thank you

    It's quite common for seed leaves to die off, I wouldn't be worried about it as long as you have a green growing point.

    Likewise I wouldn't fertilise them until they are a bit bigger - seedlings need little feeding to grow on.
