More chrysanthemums planted, in went the broccoli (Marathon) as well as a short row of red cabbage. Watered and went.

Why must everything be such a rush these days?

Yesterday I thinned out the parsnips and made a new row from some of the thinnings (it works fine on my sandy soil because it's easy to extract them without damage but I wouldn't recommend it on heavier soils.)

Today, weather permitting, I'm going to plant out my leeks which are getting a bit crowded having grown twice as well as last year despite using exactly the same technique (even the same packet of seed!)

Yesterday I potted on my indoor cukes to their final position, potted on sweet and chilli peppers, put lots of plants outside to harden off and then brought them back in again, started to weed the bed for the squash and courgettes (weeds are nice and crispy after being glyphosated). Watered all of the seedlings. Today - will continue to weed the squash bed.

looked lovely at everything it all looks so much better after the rain and picked some more strawberries before the slugs came out!!!

[Cheryl B]

Not been down for over a week due to sprained ankle and tonsilitis - slightly panicky that rain = slugs and everything I planted last Tuesday will now be gone.

[Composto]

The (second hand) greenhouse base is now nearly in place, the overwintered senshyu onions have been hand weeded and used the wheel hoe between the rows of parsnips beetroot and salsify.

[Junie]

Over last ffew days, Weeded, weeded amd weeded!
Planed out tomatoes and Aubergines,
fiddles with irrigation system as have lost seedlings due to heat and dry
S need to plant more cabbages and sprouts
Nothing has really come up because of the heat either - need to sow Carrots, beans, butternut, spring onion, radish etc

[Robster]

I have put my peppers and aubergines in the border soil of the greenhouse.  It's in a nice warm spot.  Planted out Kale, Parsley and some more lettuce.  Eating well out of the patch now.

[richy]

[mjpalin]

picked another half punnet of strawbs  , and laid down yet more slug pellets and coffee grinds to try to stop the damn slugs eating them before i can

[Paul Plots]

On the way back from the bi-annual visit to the opticians I went to see what the plot looked like.. 

Watered... and weeded and wondered why there were so many crops missing  I'm sure I had more planted out this time last year! 

[SkipRat]

Planted out some Kale, and put a few spare sweet pea,s and canes in a few large pots, and generally spent the rest of the day supping tea and putting the world to rights with some of the other lads an lasses...

[jamima]

Got lots of weeding done and put some lettuce out , watered again
