This was last week..just catching up on myself now!
I think four squash plants may have been too many...butt they are growing twice as much as last year!
It looks like we may be getting some warmer weather..that will certainly help the garden! It will certainly finish drying off these shallots.
I hope to sow seeds where the shallots and garlic have been, tomorrow.
I have bought phacaelia seeds for green manure, but I can leave sowing them until September, and that will hopefully make ground cover over the winter and be dug in in the Spring.
There will be some produce here!
ReplyDeleteIt all looks very healthy. Well done.
ReplyDeleteI have grown mustard for a green manure. Its supposed to be good for eradicating wireworm especially in old pasture. It's a Brassica so you have to be careful with crop rotation. I just strimmed it down and dug it in.
ReplyDeleteWell, too many squash is a nice problem to have! I'm looking forward to seeing whether your lupin seedlings make it to maturity. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like things are doing well. There's nothing like fresh produce right out of the ground.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a crazy summer, but the plants seem to just get on with growing whatever the weather. Here's to a bumper harvest!
ReplyDeleteI need you for the veg section in my flower show x
ReplyDeleteJohn GG I did enjoy entering the fruit and veg in the village show in Garn Dolbenmaen
ReplyDeleteA friend gave me some phacaelia plants last year once transplanted it spread well and was rather pretty I thought. But when I came to dig it in this year, there was nothing to be seen! Admittedly, I hadn't been keeping much of an eye on it but still, I was slightly surprised. I wonder what I did wrong.
ReplyDeletePossibly Jenny the winter was harder than usual? I think phacaelia is an annual
