Tuesday 29th June 2010

I went down on my own today as Henry was round at Jimmy's playing after school. I moved the fruit cage we had built and put it on top of the blackberries as they are starting to form now.

I then sorted out the tomatoes by tying them to the canes and also tying the canes to the structure of the greenhouse to make sure they don't fall over with the weight of the tomatoes as they are all starting to produce them now. I picked a lettuce for Julie (Jimmy's mum) and then gave everything in there a good water - I noticed the chillies just seem to be starting to grow after a couple of flowers - it'll be nice to see the different chillies we get this year. No flowers on the peppers yet but they are supposed to be more difficult to grow, we'll keep our fingers crossed and see !

Then I went out and sowed some more spinach seeds where the gaps in the row were, and also 2 rows of beetroot as we will be harvesting the majority of the beetroot this weekend coming - it looks lovely !
