Not afraid to say it...
I'm Addicted...
**Sigh**
But in my defence 1 is to be turned into a worm farm...
½ of the other will be used to make a Wicking Barrel for some Strawberries I saved from being overrun by Cabbages last year & a stunning Pink Flowered Strawberry was bought yesterday at the local markets... I did go looking for some Celery but all stalls were out or didn't stock as they think it to warm to plant it at the moment... Might have to venture to The Chain Store that shall remain nameless to see if they have any as most local nurseries are not stocking as many veggie seedlings as they once did...
Planting out the Babies...
The Kent Pumpkin you can see growing between the 2 beds in the Picture to the left is going to be left in with the Tomatoes & Capsicums... It can grow down the path & onto the "lawn" between us & the neighbours... I don't hold out much hope for anything planted in the "Pumpkin Bed"... It was filled with the same "Premium Soil mix" as the Spice Barrels & none of the plants look like they are doing as well as they could.... The plants have been feed worm juice & Seasol this week so we can only wait & see...
We also put in a few rows of Darwin & Red Mignonette lettuces into Bed #4 as well as some Pak Choi into Bed #3 to fill in some space between failed Beetroot & the slow growing Eggplant seedlings...
The Ginger & Galangal Barrels didn't have the soil changed in them.... We had a bit of look at them & they appear to be draining alright as they were ½ filled with the Soil mix we made & only had the last 10-15cm of dodgy "Premium Mix" ... Will just need to keep an eye on them...
Our young friend has been hanging around a lot & is getting quite used to us being in the garden with him in his tree...
Have tried to find some curl grubs to feed him but they appear to be hiding to well...
Beetroot, Lettuce, Zucchini, Shallots, Baby Dragon/All Seasons Carrots, Strawberries, Beans, Eggplant, Bay leaf, Basil, 3 eggs a day & some Lemongrass to make Tea with...
Rain....
5.5 mm this week....
Have a great one all.....
