Hi
Right first, i only have a small yard so im growing my veg in containers, i have a small greenhouse which im currently keeping my strawberries in, hardening them before being transplanted outside into pots. Ive sown spring onion and lettuce straight outside in a fairly large container. Its only been 3 days so of course i dont expect to see anything yet, but the soil this morning seems really wet, im not sure if its rained overnight (i didnt think it had) or i possibly over watered them yesterday, but could this prevent them germinating? Should i have a cloche over them?
Also, the other day i was spraying weedkiller on the weeds coming up between the flags in my yard, i sprayed all along the side and i got half way along and thought i recognised the leafs on some of them.. i was right, strawberry plants all along the side of my fencing. They seem to be growing well but will the weedkiller have killed them completely now? As it is only a cheap one and my weeds usually need to be done a few times before it really works, im hoping what i sprayed on them wont have caused too much damage! Guess ill have to wait and see!
Thanks
