Garden from last week…

Or maybe it was the week before?
I am losing the plot!
As above… plot lost.
Below… Plot found.

Corn planted!!
So much twitch in this plot. Always makes a short job agonisingly long.

Nightmare.
It had been hot for a while, windy and no rain, so the ground is cracking and we needed to fill the tanks and water the garden a lot

Lots of nice peas… and weeds!

I actually think the garlic is about ready to pull up!

The bulb sizes are really good already!
Then I cut off all the scapes which are still sitting in a basket forlornly waiting for me to dehydrate them

Potatoes coming along well

Even better this week as we’ve had lovely rain!

Why plant carrots when they do it themselves?

My beetroot patch has lots of carrots and tomatoes…

Its all flourishing

One of the lateral tomatoes. I have updated pics and they are really seeming to be thriving now.
Plus we finally cut the feathers of Pot or Kettles wing so she seems to be not in the garden anymore… helps when things aren’t dug up the little wretch.

I spy… blueberries!

Jeff is excited…. His favourites.

The apple cucumbers have taken well.

Hothouse is jungle and I need to get in there to trim and tie up stuff again

And the broccoli is going mad!!
Will update this weeks garden soon! Its all grown about 4 foot

  1. Yeah blueberries! How exciting! About 23 years ago, we made the mistake of planting blueberries on a hillside. We planted many plants of early, mid and late blooming varieties. Then we decided working the berries on the hillside and keeping the hillside cleared off was way too much work. Every year I imagine how happy the birds, small mammals and deer are to have such delicious bounty all for themselves. 🤣 That was definitely a learning curve for us.

    1. Oh no!!! Sometimes we have to learn the hard way but that was a bit of a blow!! Still… As you say… so many happy critters LOL
      Reminds me the funny/tragic thing we learned was not to plant corn at the fence line.
      So many happy cows!! They can reach over a LONG way!!!!
