My beetroot this year was very poor, the taste was terrible in some and the shape was also very wrong. I found a Charles Dowding video and he was showing his beetroot and they looked just like mine. Poor germination was also a problem I had with lots of seeds.
Well I moved some bricks from around my veg area and I was going to mow up a load of composting material, rather stupidly I had a fight with the mower blade and am now missing 2 finger ends 😭😭😭😭 me thinks gardening may take a back seat for a good while
Oh @Wilderbeast 😲 You are as bad as my hubby, he has just broken his shoulder , for the second time in three years. Both of you need wrapping in bubble wrap for your own protection @Wilderbeast
Thanks @bullfinch currently feelinike a very silly boy 😭😭😭 Mrs Wilderbeast was very concerned when I called her, the panic really set in when she realised she would have to cook Christmas dinner 🤯🤯
Oh dear @Wilderbeast I have had some scrapes over the years but thankfully I've never done that. I managed a trip to the Allotment today, pruned the BlackBerry luckily it's a thorn less variety so no problem with injuries.
@Wilderbeast , sorry to hear about your accident , take care and have a restful Christmas Had a good day at allotment today , main job was getting bark chippings for paths from huge pile in car park , as ever did a few other jobs .
@Wilderbeast, ouch, sorry to hear about your accident, sounds like the kind of mishap I seem to be prone to. Hope it's not actual tops of fingers? Does Mrs Wilderbeast not cook? I cleared the rockery of all the small birch leaves, a 'on your knees' job which is a bit tedious, especially with gravel underneath. There are small bulbs coming up and hellebores in bud.
