Spring into exercise

Having fun with the balcony garden but not with my weight or fitness levels at the moment. The carrots were a disaster, so I'm not sure what went wrong there. They are bonsai rainbow carrots. They have been in for weeks and ahve only grown to about 3 cm. Now an hungry caterpillar has eaten all of their leaves so they are looking sad and shorn. Any tips for next time? The spinach, mint and theyme are thriving and I've enjoyed them in salads. The hungry caterpillar has made soem inroads there as well.

I'm trying to grow a tomato plant, which has leaned over as I only used a small stake. Its looking healthy though so well see if it fruits fingers crossed.

TIme to get away from my PC and get some fresh air and sunshine while it lasts.
