Full of holes All of mt rucola leaves are full of tiny holes. They grow outside. Also kale nearby was affected the same way but not spinach. #GardenRocket

Anyone knows the species? Alright so I had the bad idea to invade my kitchen, plant any seed I found and not name 11 very identical pots. Anyone knows what this could be?

For the first time in probably 3 years, I’m doing some veg outside! I haven’t got actual beds at this house, so I’m having to improvise! 🌱🥕🥗 Plastic pots for peas, and a rectangular metal planter (so technically #TeamCan ) with roughly mixed rocket and lettuce seeds. I’ve got another rectangle for some pepper seeds I’m trying to germinate as I type! 🫑 We had a fence panel come down, so we’ve broken it apart and my plan is to make more planters with it… if anyone has advice for such a venture please let me know..!! 🛠🔨 Some potential #GregFeedback here, I’d love to be able to add the dimensions of rectangular pots! This is about 10cm across but about 25/30 wide! 📏 I’d also love to be able to put what kind of soil combination I have, most of my pots are combinations of the soil types so I never quite know what to put #OutdoorGrowing #Seedlings #Nallon #WishMeLuck #VeggieLove #VegVentures
