  • Hello everyone I hope you are enjoying this hot humid weather.

    21 deg here in Warwickshire and looking like a thunder storm is coming my way, But I don’t mind as I’ve been digging my greenhouse base today, I’m ready for the wife to call 999 as my back is killing me or even a pint or two, in fact I’ve got more chance of a paramedic coming than a pint LOL

    I’ve had a funny week decided Monday to tidy up the greenhouse and alter the racks so I can get it without breaking my neck also so I can get to my plants from the dining room.

    After that Tuesday I decided to thin out some seedlings and pot up in to deep root trainers and also look at my Rosemary just to see if there was any roots developing I was quite surprised as I had  5 out of six that had started to root so I moved them on into deep root trainers so fingers crossed they will take, I also tidied up the pots at the front of the house (viola) was choking the Rosemary in one pot however  the other pot not 2 feet from it was doing really well (funny that) both plants were bought, planted at the same time in the same compost even watered at the same time.

    The really healthy plant has been trimmed twice now since I planted it in June. Not to waste any cutting I planted them in a new pot just to see if they take (no harm done if they don’t) so after my reproduction of Rosemary I planted up two new hanging baskets and a pot of Claymont (I had bought these weeks ago)

    I bought a second had cylinder Lawnmower of ebay £30.00 and used it already (works) fantastic

    I raked my lawn twice and cut it twice this week (OK both on the same day) before the forecasted rain that we never got it was supposed to have rained Thursday and Friday all day but did we get any NO.

    Here are the pictures of what I been up to sorry but they are in no order this week as I have to go out
