I pricked out my verbena B yesterday think about 40 seedlings some bigger and some really small - think the seeds were free from Garden News Mag last year Mr Fothergills, shame about yours
Got 2 Larkspur seedlings that germinated think only the ones that went in the freezer have done anything
I only have one sweetcorn germinated checked out the other seeds they were squashy and little maggoty things in them have a few seeds left think it will be a case of putting them on wet kitchen towel to start with see if anything happens can't have one
Ginagibbs keep a watch out on their plot, good the crops are getting watered in very wet here
Council strimmers were going around yesterday doing the edges of the site and road edges - would of been nice to have my plot done would of been so fast
This is the weed killer I have been using successfully on horse tail , O/H originally got it off internet , we did find a garden centre that stocks it locally to us
best of luck
had a good day on A yesterday , put in a Oberlist and Jasmine , birthday presents
Really day had yo put up the sun umbrella , really cold today
Gardengirl you seem to be getting on really well keep it up but don't do to much
I went to the plot on Wednesday and only meant to stay for an hour but it was so lovely that I was there for a couple of hours. A couple of the plot holders said a lady had been parking on my plot and they have asked her a number of times to move but she refused, so a lovely gentleman put up 2 posts and put a washing line between them to make a fence, I was so grateful to them. They even gave me a hose pipe to use rather then using a watering can. I love it there Mr Stagbeetle and I are going to go there for the morning today.
Glad to hear you got some back up Stagbeetle, who did that lady think she is to park on your plot!!
Did'nt go yesterday evening, too wet. Went for a nice long walk with the dogs instead and picked wild garlic, then went home and watched Chelsea garden design on TV. Some times its nice to have a rest!! (feeling a bit sore too GG)
Hello GWRS I have watched them think they were enjoyable to watch some good ideas and tips from them and Joe Swift and the others - really like when they got all the plant delivered and went around picking them in the garden centre place
I suspect they found out ages ago and had not to tell anyone, think they all would be making their gardens in these last couple of weeks at Chelsea
Question where did you buy your sheds from to who that had to?
I am thinking some time not too far off to get one but don't want to spend that much on one
