A quick walkabout at the beginning of June.
The potatoes in the greenhouse are starting to flower and it won’t be long until they are ready to harvest.
Tomatoes are coming along nicely.
Rhubarb is going crazy.
And the pigeons are causing nothing but issues.
Giant marrows have been planted.
A quick look around the plot and something is eating my parsnips and strawberries.
In this episode, I show you around the greenhouse where some of my seedlings have started to fire. I also take a quick look at my seed potatoes. Any comments or suggestions, please leave them below.
A quick look around the plot on a sunny February day. I’ve started to prep my beds ready for the growing season and I’ve started to sow a few veg and potatoes.
Today I show you what’s growing in the greenhouse. My early potatoes that are growing in the greenhouse are growing well. The seedlings are doing well and won’t be long until they are planted out.The early potatoes have been topped up with soil, although the main crop aren’t doing anything. I thought I killed a lot of my fruit bushes over winter, but thankfully a lot of them survived. And finally, I show you my wild life pond, which is very much a work in progress.
A quick catch up on what’s growing in the greenhouse.
I’ve been looking for a greenhouse since getting the plot last year, and for Christmas, my parents bought me one. Last weekend me and my dad decided to put it up while the weather was good. (more…)
October marks the start of the cooler weather with some frosts later in the month. Your tender crops should now be harvested leaving you with your hardier, overwintering crops. October is a great month to start your preparation for the next growing season.
July is generally one of the driest months of the year so most of your time will be spent watering. Generally, a good soaking every two-three days is better than a little bit of water every day. You can save yourself a lot of time and water by mulching with organic matter.
Spring is just around the corner but yet February can still be one of the coldest months of the year. If the weather permits you can start some early sowing or even plant outside. However, if the conditions aren’t right, delay your sowing until the weather warms up a little.
