hello everyone.
it is ok i have not forgoten you all, this month has been somewhat hectic with online mmorpg'ing and searching for work. the green house has come on in leaps and bounds the grass is beating me back and my garden burner has been puffing away like a smokers pipe.
Dwarf beans have now finnished, these poor things had been ravished by slugs and snails they also blocked alot of the much needed sunlight too the tomatos, they have gone and now getting recycled in the makeshift composter bin.
cucumbers wont stop flowering and producing fruit. i have had from count 12 lovely fresh 6-8 inch cucumbers. i have around another 8 in various stages of growth, hopefuly they will finnish before the first english frosts.
tomatos an peppers speak for themselves with the attached pictures.
and would you believe it, i was cutting down some of the long grass ( 2-4ft high) ready too dry and use as a covering too keep my growbag soil good and frost free next years early planting. popped in too get a cool drink and there he was waiting on the fence. my friend the robin had come back. luckly i had hug a apple from a cord onto the washing line. was not long before most ofthe smaller birds inc robin had visited the swinging cafe.
it has been a hectic month or so. but i shall leave you with these few pics and a whole new update tomorrow or monday evening (uk) with new and improved tomato training cane fence and a few shots of the roma's / money makers / peppers /cucumbers.
here's good eating and healthy growing too you all
