Garden And Gossip Forums

The drip, drip, drip of rain from the roof into the water butts.

My red iceberg have started germinating   .

Fifth day of rain and reasonably priced organic tomato plants at a discount supermarket. Take that fungus gnats, you may kill my plants but we WILL eat tomatoes !

Video call from the lad showing off the progress of his new kitchen. Its beginning to take shape and the end is nearly in sight.

No less than three robins breakfasting simultaneously at the small feeding station we set up outside the bedroom window. The wind must make them hungry. P is setting up the web cam to try to capture them on film.

Having friends over for lunch, the first time we've entertained since late 2019. Although we've all had both doses of vaccine, we still are only meeting outside, but it felt so good!

The outdoor carrots sown on 27 March have finally germinated, about time too!

RAIN !!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve finally found somewhere that has blood fish & bone and potato fertiliser in stock at the same time. At a reasonable price. And they will deliver here ! I can start potting things up when it arrives 

Dahlias are all sprouting, greenhouse is chockablock with plants. I have been a bit lax on the toms- difficult with not having any access onto the garden but I'm getting very excited with the thought of planting it all out! Be prepared to be bombarded by photos peeps
