A pleasant day on the garden

Yes it was a pleasure to be able to sort the garden out  what with the nice sunshine we have had today. My first job was to get my boys to do a bit of lifting for me as i am restricted in doing any lifting or bending. The one main thing that had to be done was to get the bean beds sorted out  ready for the canes to be put in the correct place, i know it is still a bit early but at  least it will be all done ready for planting when the time comes. The second job was to sort out my mixture for my carrots which consist of 2 sorts,  the first one is for long carrots which is being grown in 4ft-6" pipes when i grew them the last time they were 4ft in lenght and not a bad shape at all, i am this year going to try a slightly different method and see if there will be any different in condition. The second carrots will be grown in pop bottles as i have nearly always done and have always had good results. some people might laugh at that way but you will be surprised when you see the results. One good thing about the pop bottles is that you can put it any ware you want even in between flower plants and still get a good one.

Onions.
This year i will be hoping to have a reasonable show of onions which will consist of kelsae which will be plants from DT BROWN, the reason why i am getting them from DT BROWN is because i was to late to plant any of my own seed which i  sow in december which would give me a better chance of getting a nice big one so we will have to wait and see what happens.

TOMATOES.
I have decided to grow  again this year what i grew last year as the results were very good indeed.
1 GARDENERS DELIGHT
2 SUNGOLD F1
3 STRILLO
4 SWEET MILLION FI
I will not use all these plants as i give my daughter some has she is getting green fingers now and is doing very well.

BEANS
The beans i am growing this year is a bean called BENCHMASTER, now i have not grown these before so it will be interesting to  see the results and compare them to what  usually grow.

One last thing i would like to say, is that i hope all the  the people who suffered from this terrible weather we have had did not have to much damage done to there polytunels or green houses. Will be in touch at a later date.
