Ehm… I kinda think that I sowed far too many seeds in my vegetable patch…
and the same for the next line of cauliflower and the marrow have come up too… waiting for the onion and tomatoes now.
anyone wants some salad seedlings?

my trials and tribulations in trying to create a garden in the desert
Hey there, I’m an Australian expat living in Bahrain, eager to start my own vegetable garden, I am told it is easier to purchase seedlings here, and that it is rather hard to grow your own vegetables in this climate, I was wondering where you buy your seedlings from? I am in the process of building a greenhouse with my family here in Budaiya
Your garden looks amazing and makes me even more impatient to start my own!
Regards
Very sorry it’s taken so long to get back to you. I hope you’ve found the sources by now, but if you haven’t, then Jassim Garden Centre on the Budaiya Highway has a good selection there. Al-Bader on the Janabiya highway has some as well as seedlings which I’ve had success with before.
Bahrain has the perfect climate for all kinds of plants once you provide them with the right soil and water and sometimes, shade.
Good luck in your efforts.
