planning ahead
Frantic Gardener on Sep 17th 2011
it has been so very very busy at work that i haven’t had a day at home for 3 weeks. this is a bad thing for the garden, as well as a bad thing for me spending time with the family. grumpetty grump!
So the clearing and organising hasn’t happened yet.
nor has the buying of garlic - so will do that, tho the braod bean seeds are here. will see how big a patch we clear as to whether can pop anything else in at the time.
Still harvesting lots of peppers - armfuls! and runner beans - armfuls, but the french beans have finished and the courgettes slowed down. lots of chard and potatoes still, and getting to the point of wondering when the sweetcorn ready. the weather recently has been v autumnal and much less sunny, so concerned about how they are ripening.
Harvested lots of raspberries, and also the pears. the watermelon haven’t made it, as the plant dying back
