Its been BUSY here!
Tor Croft is racing along with potato's and tomato's and strawberries and LOTS of other stuff as well (including weeds and grass...bah!)growing like there's no tomorrow.
Look here!! Remember those sad little pots outside the house that just looked like a bit of straw was chucked in there??
Huge Jerusalem artichokes and advanced Garlic now!
The greenhouse is working hard with early strawberries which taste like little packets of nectar!! Ok..but they DO taste gooood ;)
We want to make a lot more areas to grow under glass. The plan being to run a long greenhouse along the front of the house that will not only make additional space to take boots and things off, but will allow me to grow more indoor strawberries, tubs with courgettes and tomato's and other delicate plants.

I love your strawberry basket! Mine are in a raised bed...which needs weeded...desperately. We've had so much rain and hot weather that everything is going like mad and I can't keep up. Tomatoes...soon! Beets and sweet peppers look great, watermelons look great. Had cantaloupe but the chickens found the seeds and picked 'em all out of the hills. Stupid chickens.
ReplyDeleteAwww...I want to live somewhere warm enough to grow water melon!! **pout**
ReplyDeleteThe strawberry baskets are a winner!! I plan to plat up @8-10 next year when the new green house is up..no slugs and no littel fingers stealing all the ripe ones ;)
