Decided to chill yesterday, just went up to water everything.

Also worked out where the new greenhouse is going to go - got a 8x6 foot freebie!

last day before kids back to school, so took fleece off sweetcorn and courgettes, watched shrek, did homework, sorted out uniforms and pe kit, made sandwiches, had tea, had baths and just put fleece back on.  Poor patch, not much attention today.

Just back from hols, so set straight to work with the hoe as weeds have been loving the weather 

Watered everything well as ground bone dry 6" down!

Dug over a new patch that was sprayed with glyphosate before hols.

Had a look at the potatoes just starting to appear above their ridges. Red Duke of Yorks are easy to spot as they are such an amazing colour. Not grown them before so it was a bit of a surprise!

90 minutes watering and off again.

Over the long weekend we….deep breath…..
Hoed and weeded onion bed.
Direct sowed beetroot, lettuce (2 varieties), spring onions and planted some potatoes we won in a competition (5 spuds in all!).
Watered EVERYTHING as it really needed it.
Dug over the Legume bed ready for the peas/mange tout/beans & forked in some muck.
At home we sowed into pots, sweet corn, courgettes, gherkins, French beans (climbing and dwarf) butter-nut squash and another little squash variety.
We also potted on, sunflowers, marigolds, statice, pak-choi, brussels, cabbage, cauliflower, romescu, tomatoes. I’m still disappointed with the celeriac (the are only 2 tiny leaves and have been in ages!)
All in all our patio looks like a garden centre, maybe I should flog them 3 for 2 this weekend!

Planted out Main Crop Potatoes (desiree), sown some spring onions and radish in pots to plant out later (stompy,s method). pricked out a few corn flowers.

Basked in the sun, watered all that needed it (including me), weeded and fleeced the potato rows as frost is forcast for us tonight, weeded the beds and added sand to one of the beds that is currently full of clay blocks to help that break up a bit.

In the next few weeks, I plan to get mange tout and sweetcorn in.
