Got some planting done!!!

Well I went down the plot this afternoon for a couple of hours and got some planting done...all the while I had to consciously NOT look at the rubbish I haven't had time to move at the top end so as not to distract myself from the task at hand.

Finally got some seeds in courtesy of Dave and Sylvia who gave me some yesterday so thank you both for that. I also planted out my Broad Beans and put my parsnips in...now I just have to see if they will grow...I went with the, 'dig a deep trench and fill it with compost' method so fingers crossed.

All the seedlings in the greenhouse have shot up this last week and so I am going to harden some off this week ready for planting next week.

Would also like to thank Pete who is going to provide me with new water butts!!

This is just a short one but I will write more in the week and maybe put up some pics too!!

  5. So glad to hear it is all coming back together! i have some seedlings at the moment that are growing much faster than I had intended and we haven't even got a bed for them yet, let alone one that has been actually prepared!!

  7. Just started to harden off my first seedlings too. I always worry about the planting out stage. Not much rain recently so will have to remember to water them well.
