MORE GOODIES !!!!

We have another glorious day starting off here, so later Im going to get out and get some more bits n bobs done -It's mainly just a few more pots to fill up with compost and cow dung pellets. Oh and I need to seperate my mini caulis and pot them up into their final place.

Oh and confession time ....
the other day when we went out to pick up what will hopefully be the last of the compost I need for this year I spotted some plants -oops -I came away with :-

1. 2 x "egg shaped" tomato plants
2. 2 x "fleshy" tomatoes -which I'm thinking will be good for pasta sauces
3. 2 x aubergine plants

Now I know I have set loads of seeds of my own -but these were 50c each ...and so I couldn't resist -although they also had various courgette, pepper, chilli plants too -but I resisted :-)

Then I got an envelope from my mum ..... which has some :-

1. beetroot -"solo" -which only gives on betroot per seed
2. cabbage -"pixie"-which are small for my containers and don't need sowing until july-sep -by which time I should have some other crops that have finished and cleared to make room for them
3. cabbage "first early market" which I sow from july to start harvesting from February -or I can grow it like spring greens all year round

Its a good job we like our greens and a good job I built the brassica tent or I would have all the butterflies moving into the garden! I don't expect for 1 minute to keep all the butterflies out ..but at least I will stand a chance against them lol
