Re: Davina's 2013 grow our own diaryWell the garden is looking sad, and that's just how I feel about it. It hasn't been a good year, partly down to me I suppose but not totally. Holidaying first 2 weeks in September is not good. I had lost my enthusiasm when I arrived home.
Looking forward already to spring and the thoughts of what I can grow. It feels like it is going to be a lonnnnnnnnng winter I has spring cabbage in the Polly tunnel at this time last year, all I have in now are celeriac, not sure what they are going to do, but ![]() [center][/center]Davina

Re: Davina's 2013 grow our own diaryI know you are right LL, I'm sure come March I will be chomping at the bit and desperately wanting to get out and do something.

Re: Davina's 2013 grow our own diaryThe veg patch has been weeded and tidied, and had lots of horse poo added to it, so it will be ready for planting next year.
Hubby has increased the depth of the raised beds in the Polly tunnel, and those too will have horse poo added to them this weekend. The only thing I have left growing now are leeks and sprouts outdoors and celeriac in the Polly tunnel. Hubby has had a great idea, bless him, 2 summers ago we made a walk in run at the back of the garden for the chooks as they dig up all the veggies, but I didn't like seeing them fastened in, so we tried to cover the veg instead. So next year we are going to plant the veggies that need netting in the run and let the chooks free range in the garden ![]() [center][/center]Davina
