Back at the Waltons - Day 4

Final Day and all seems well. Its been a very hot day and it has needed a little more water. Passing back to Hugh now....

Back at the Waltons - Day 3

The plants seem a little more perky today. It could just be my bad eyesight but they to be standing taller. The red stems are really prominent and I can't help but think they are trying to tell me something, maybe they needed to be re-potted/planted to progess and grow through the next stage. I seem to be focusing on keeping the plant alive with water and sun but the plant probably needs more thought than that. Definitely a beginner gardener....

Back at the Waltons - Day 2

Not much change but looking a little dry. A bit more water required tonight after a hot day.

Back at the Waltons

Welcome back plant. Its grown upwards and outwards since it was last here. The stems are mush thicker and red of the radish more visible. Watered morning and night with no real change to the appearance in the last 24 hours.

He's still hanging in there - radishes are one plucky species (I'd like to have seen a flower do this). I've done all I can for him, so with good grace, on he goes.

The radish is hanging in there. I decided that if his condition deteriorates over night then I will perform an act or mercy and give him a dignified exit (involving a composting bin)

Palliative gardening. All I want to do is to put the plant somewhere with a view where he can rest and do my best to make him comfortable in his last hours/days - it's the least I can do.
