Update

Well the warmth and wet are bringing everything on inside and outside

 

Jeannettes just prepped half the cucumber Polytunnel with the cane frame

they did superbly in this one a couple of years ago so fingers crossed for this year

 

 

Some of the plants have actually got baby cucumbers on like this one' if they keep growing as they have done we should have a good crop again

 



 

We've also got our first batch of French Beans planted in another Polytunnel although they're sharing with some of our customers hanging baskets which will be going out a bit earlier than we thought if the weather continues as it has

 

Outside we've now got Onions Garlic Broad Beans Cabbage Broccoli Cauliflowers all growing through our Corn Starch based mulch 'plastic' and we've sown Peas and Sugar Snap Peas too...

 

 Under the mulch layer there are 'T' Tapes for watering so hopefully with these and the mulch layer the time we previously spent weeding and watering will be drastically reduced

 

 

 In the big tunnel the new tatties are growing well...can't wait to dig the first lot up in a few weeks

 

 

Customers hanging baskets have grown really well and will be going out in a couple of weeks to our friends at Glendavan House and Osborne House where they are well cared for and always look great through the Summer

 

Skye is however on strike  whilst Lucy chases the birds away!!
