Finally spring is here. It’s official.
What a wonderful weekend in the garden, just what we needed to recover from a slow start to spring. This weekend I got down to some serious sowing, Second round of Runners, Broad bean and Tomato were sown. Onions from seed were planted out. Potted garlic was finally planted in the Big bed.
The greenhouse although still not completely finished is coming into it’s own! – I love having a greenhouse!
I built myself a new container for the greenhouse. Its bigger than it looks at nearly 4ft long and should be a fantastic place to grow the peppers. This year i am growing “Big red” and “California wonder” I am wondering what else I should grow in there.. Any ideas?
Some of the late march sowing have started to come though this past week. I am using last years peas and germination has been quite slow. Hopefully this hot weather will speed things along.
The greenhouse bench I made last weekend is nearly full! Time to put in some more shelves. All sorts of seedlings in progress. Squash and courgettes are looking good as are the chili peppers.
Hopefully the weather will continue though the week. There is always so much to do in the garden.
The chickens are enjoying their new run. They can now come outside even when we are not home.
