Gardening fun
21 06 2010I managed to get a little more done in the garden yesterday.
I finally got around to thinning /planting out some carrots seedlings and Katie planted out some pepper seedlings.
Let’s hope the slugs don’t get them!
The Blueberry bush is doing well, hopefully be a good crop again this year
The Potatoes out the front of the house are doing well, I’ve managed to keep the slugs off these
Selection of pepper seedlings KT planted out
I need to pick up a grow bag tonight so I can plant out the tomato seedlings
We have a real bumper crop of Strawberries this year. Douglas and Lily are really enjoying picking and eating them.
What’s nice is the plants are all ripening at different times
The Rooftop potatoes are also doing well. I’ve taken the chicken wire off the top of the tubs now (ever cat in the area decided they made a great place to shit) and the plants are now thriving!
Here’s a long-shot from upstairs in the house
As you can see we could have put more up there, but things are a bit up in the air at the moment as we maybe moving soon.
