Had a very productive day today.
Went to the plot straight from work and got stuck into the digging.
The plot is coming on great now, really starting to look like I am getting somewhere

On the lotty at 0745 and got stuck in planting another batch of collies and cabbages this time UNDER NETTING, the toms did not need watering because by accident I left my drip feed system on from Sunday, ha, ha ;D and finished by having a good weeding session :)

Pulled my first* few potatoes out. I was amazed by the taste of them...I've been eatinf shop bought ones too long, these were amazing. Don't normally like boiled potatoes but I just sat there stuffing them down my throat, straight out of the pan!

*as in first ever...never grown them before.

Wrecked the Greenhouse

And cleaned up

tonybloke · « **Reply #1074 on:** June 12, 2008, 20:57:56 »

sowed a few rows of Autumn King and Resistafly carrots, some under fleece, some between rows of onions, and started to lower my tomatoes as they had reached the eaves of the greenhouse.

Hyacinth · « **Reply #1075 on:** June 12, 2008, 21:25:13 »

Got v. wet, then dry, then wet, then dry, then v. wet again..pulled all my autumn planted garlic, 20 fat sticks of rhubarb & cut a couple of trugs of mint for bottling, planted out my companion marigolds...finally gave up, came indoors with a couple of v. large Ostergruss radishes & a Red Baron to have with some cheese, necked 1/2 a bottle of red with them - and zzzzzzzzzzz'd the afternoon away. Still got the mint to bottle and hey ho! work tomorrow.... :-\

hi people

You have all been productive, good.

Unfortunatly i still have double vision and all i have been doing is sleeping and having doctors visit me and waiting in hospital.

Had head CT scan so far and a mri scan to work out why my left eye is not moving as much as its suppose to and why i have a a facial twich down the right side.

Still after 4 days i can now see about 3 or 4 foot in front of myself if i concentrate without the double vision and i can us a pc for a short period of time with one eye :)

I miss my allotment, the sunshine and i know my plants in my greenhouse outside are probable frazzed to a burnt stup as i forgot to water them woops.

Oh dear, Cam, sorry to hear you're having such a miserable time. Hope they get to the bottom of it very soon.

I planted out cucumbers, toms and sweetcorn today, plus some aubergines into growbags in the greenhouse. And strimmed yet again. Also dug up the first garlic of the year. :D

You poor thing Louise. I do hope you feel better very soon.
