COFFEE : April 1st

My total gardening knowledge comes from the back of a seed packet, it sometimes pays to read it twice!

I didn't realise the single seed was actually germinated already, and I do mean sprouting . . . . and I left it in the packet for 4 weeks.
Coffee bean sprouting

I hastily put together some dirt and sand to a consistency I would call 'gritty' and bedded in the seed, sprouty bit upwards. April 23rd : Sorry, coffee's off.
It looks like it's dead, the sticky out bit has been pointing up in the air for weeks and  then it occurred that perhaps it should be sticking down, I've turned it over and put it in 'lost hope corner' just in case.

           
       
           
 

 

 
  And now . . . a word from our sponsors.
OK, there're not really sponsoring me but they did send me a free catalogue so worth a mention.
