We have had a really sunny week and the garden is growing fast. There is a big difference in the tomatoes and squashes and the sweetcorn is shooting up. The watering system works great and just keeps the soil damp. Its now on twice a day 7am and 7pm.
The poor pota
toes have not been looking to good of late and its not lack of water. We think it might be sitting next to the electric fence so we have moved them down beside the greenhouse.Courgettes an
d squashes flowering.I planted basil,
chervil and parsley before going on holiday - infact I took the seeds on holiday incase the dried out. Anyway they are now transplanted into pots. They do look a bit frail at the moment but hopefull will strengthen.I was a
t a f
riends house and she grows strawberries in hanging baskets. I had these 2 bags from the previous house and thought I'd try lettuce and strawberries in them. There were also nails in the decking already. The strawberries don't look to happy at the moment coz they didn't have a good root system. They were just pulled from the garden. Not sure how they will do if we have a holiday. I have put watering retaining gel in them.
