UP DATE ON THIS YEARS GROWING 2015

Not been on the blogg for about 4 months so i thought i would give an update on how tings have been progressing.  First of all the toms that i have grown have done really well and are now producing a lot off fruit. The one that i am very pleased with is called NIMBUS F1 which was sent to me by dtbrown as a trial packet. I must say  that i am very impressed with the results and i think it could do well in shows. The only thing that might be against it is that it does have slight ribs on them but it would be worth having a go to see what results would be.  The second one i grew was shirley and that has grown very well and again they have slight ribs in them as well. There is very little difference in size and the circumference are almost the same nice and round but with that little rib. The third one i grew was the old favorite  gardeners delight and that one never seems to fail as it always has an abundant of fruit. The final one was Sungold f1 ,this one i grew last year and i was so impressed with it even my wife asked me to grow it mainly because of its sweetness.

On to the onions, I must first say that that this year i am with out any doubt 2 months behind in growing and again it is all down to my medical condition which up to now i have been put into hospital on 3 occasions this year and i am only glad to think that my wife and son has done well for me to have got to the growing stage ware i am now. Any how the onions this year are the showmaster strain from marshalls and up to this day they are 15 inches in circumference  so i will still feed and let them grow for another 8 weeks and by then they should not be to bad a size .the other onion i grew was Russian onion from seed and i was pleased to get them to germinate so quick they are about 5inches in circumference so i will grow them earlier next year all being well.


RUNNER BEANS
This year i have tried 2 sorts and i must say that up to now i am not to pleased with the  results.
They are firestorm   and moonlight. I do realize that this has not been a good year for beans and quite a few gardeners that i know has said the same. We do have to take into account the weather and as all will know has not been to good but i am afraid there is little we can do about it.
Well this all for now will update later on.
