Just potted some more geranium cuttings that have rooted in water and sowed some Praying Hands Hosta seeds I collected.
Had a quick look in my greenhouse this morning. Most of my tomatoes are just about ripe so I think I will start working on getting the GH shut down this week. My heater is constantly running and that costs money. Will be -7 tonight and no big warm up insight for the next couple weeks.
So I will get the shelves ready in my basement cold room for the green toms, the bulbs and the tubers. One more coffee and head out to the GH to toss out my little planter of Impatiens (in full bloom) and a pot of mint. I hate doing that, they are looking sooo good!
I don't think I shall ever get used to all this way of corresponding so try to carry on just ordered next year's seed potatoes from Scotland I e Swift and Ulster Prince and Konda I've not had that one before have had to cover with flees winter lettuce and carrots and spring onions the birds were pecking and scratching but will later on cover with plastic tunnels nice and snug while on my hols so that's it for today Goodnight every one
hi all going down g/h this morning I am going to try and regrow some apple mint from seed I took about 10 little flower heads of the apple mint (yes I know I could take a rooted end and plant but I want to try and se if it works
On one of the sites , somebody mentioned there cape gooseberrys had not flowered , well I read that the North is unlikely to get enough sun so it was suggested over wintering in G/h and carry on growing next year so having ago
