Hi all,
I've got some seeds that are starting to germinate and I had hoped to have some beds prepared ready for them to go into by now.
Unfortunately it doesn't look like that is going to happen in time so I'd like to plant my seedlings into pots, at least for now, and possibly for the whole of this year while I get the beds properly prepared.
I've heard it said that you can grow pretty much anything in pots but my question is, for the plants below, what size pots should I use?
Is it a case of the bigger the better? Should I refer to the spacing guides on the seed packets and try and get a pot that will give them the same space they should be allocated in a bed?
I'm growing/would like to grow:
Courgettes
Aubergines
Butternut Squash
Chilli's
Peppers
Mange Tout
Dwarf Beans
Early Sprouting Purple Broccoli
Any help gratefully received!
