I know I haven’t blogged much recently, but it’s not because I haven’t been gardening – and here’s the proof!
Work has totally monopolised my time, but every spare hour I’ve had off has been spent in the veg-patch. Three weeks ago it was almost exclusively weeds in there, but I’ve pulled and slashed and screamed and now they are mostly gone, to be replaced with some neat rows of seeds and seedlings.
Cropping at the moment are the usual herbs, radishes, lettuces, rhubarb, chard and very nearly strawberries. Starting to grow or recently planted are beetroot, beans, tomatoes, spuds, celery, carrots, artichokes, cucumbers, gherkins and pumpkins.
Realistically that’s probably all I’ll find time to do this year, so I’m concentrating on maximising the yield and keeping the weeds under control!
