Toms are a go!

Planted out my Toms today into their permanent growbag homes. Looking good and strong and the plants I transplanted a few weeks ago have now got flowers forming so Toms are are their way...

This year I didn't sow that many tomatoes plants but did go for 'blight resistant' seeds which were, for seeds, very expensive but if they are blight resistant they will be worth it.. my Toms ALWAYS get blight.... I have far more plants than I had intended though as i have my 'rouge' plants which, Yes I know I should discard, but last year I got some good fruits from them so I cant see why I should just pull them out and throw them away! I now have about 12 plants on the go so hopefully should get a good crop.  All I have to do is wait.......

Strawberry Season

Its Strawberry season and I have my very own plants to pick my fresh juicy fruits from...



The raised beds are all planted up now - Courgettes, French Beans (which have finally decided to show them selves), Carrots (which have failed to show them selves but I am still hoping....!) lots of rouge Tomato plants which I am allowing to grown even though I know I shouldn't... Spring Onions, & my Sweetcorn Plantation.
