Hi there
Well I've left it too long to post again and I'm sure I am going to forget half of what I have been doing! With record temperatures last weekend of up to 20 degrees, I took the opportunity of a free Saturday to finish digging the potato patch and get them planted up. I have five different varieties this year so we are going to see which we like the mostest. I have four rows of five, Ulster prince, Foremost, Pixie and....... (forgot) and then three rows of fiveish Pentland Javelin. They are all earlies so I can get them all up in time for the courgettes, squash and corn! I have planted them a little later than last year but still a bit earlier than some. Some people save potato planting until Easter time!
I have also got the lushest looking garlic patch! They are about five inches high some of them. I am trying to tack successional growing this year so have sown more peas and beetroot in modules. I have also started off some Lettuces in modules to get a head start. I have Potted up my tomatoes and will do the same with the chilli's tonight hopefully. Also the lettuce that I put in before christmas in the autumn is still alive... not sure about eating it now but WOW survived against all the odds.
I took part in a flashmob with my choir on Sunday... we were raising funds for sports relief! Waht a FAB thing to do it was really great. So I will leave you with a video!
Chat soon
