First up I had to remove the Perpetual Spinach in Bed#2; it got relocated to Bed#1.
This is my first attempt at potatoes and I am very excited. I understand it will take a fair bit of time for them to grow and quite a bit of space, both of which I have.
Now I must confess that Bed#2 does not get as much sun as I would like in June/July and part of August, but more than enough to start the potatoe patch. There are 12 seed spud, which should be more than enough for two.
I also bought & erected a 4 Tier Glasshouse (made of plastic) from trusty old Bunnings.
I hope to raise a lot of seedlings and out of season items in the Glasshouse, I already have Pineapple Sage and Grapefruit Sage sitting pretty and keeping warm.
There is still a few carrots floating around Bed#1, but they should get eaten in the next few days. The next round of carrots are a long way off.
I also planted some red coral lettuce and more leeks, thanks to my dad. Who had waiting for me on my last visit a pot of lettuce & leeks seedlings.
Waiting for my COS lettuce to seed so I can collect and store for summer.
Brocoli & Cauliflower are coming along nicley.
Sugar Snap Peas are being picked on a daily basis. YUM. I have about 12 plants on the go.
I planted Broad Beans this weekend gone, they replaced the Butter Beans that I planted way to late in season.
Til next time
