Think there is a moth trap you can buy and put up in the tree earlier in the year to help with plums
Been to the allotment lots of strimming done today and yesterday and some weeding, paths and bits on plot look much better for being cut, found a few frogs jumping around
Did give some cauliflower leaves to chickens they like to jump for them
My pumkins are bigger will add pics soon ish
Have found someone on YouTube from a different site in Southampton to me started watching the video then noticed where it was at the end of a video, thought I recognise the site - it was one I went to last year for the plant sale
GWRS good green manure is growing well, fruit cage what size you gone for?
Scroggin sure it was not the windy weather with the tomatoes or did they go far, nice of you to leave extra veg on your wall
me still eating my broad beans from last years sowing froze a lot of them, not sure if I do winter ones will have to see how far I get along with the plot
Gardengirl, not sure of size of fruit cage , bought 2nd hand , when up , will post picture and size
Green manure , first lot sown 16Aug , called Summer Mix and you mustn't let them flower , trim them or they I'll self seed , this is to build nitrogen , needs to be dug in after about 10 weeks
Secound lot 1st Sept , Gazing Rye , can be left in over winter , general soil improver , needs digging in , in Spring

Hello all , had a good day at plot yesterday
Prepared the area for the fruit cage , will need o/h help in putting it up
Lots of pruning done but still more needed
Picked last of courgettes , still got fruit on yellow ones
French beans are finished , another job clearing those away
First lot of green manure growing well , second starting to germinate
I trust you are all well

Hi All,
Scroggin,,I couldn't risk leaving veg outside our house, we live near a school and I would imagine there would be tomato fights!! lol
I used up 1 kilo of tomato's yesterday by making passata to put in a curry sauce,and 2 kilo's of courgettes making to Kofta's to go with it, yumm!
still picking beans, toms, courgettes. Now have a tree full of pears to cope with, any suggestions!
Ginagibbs , what about pear ? smoothies
