Done.... I think it is time to sit down and have a cup of tea (its only expression- i only drink coffee). Been so busy in the garden and the veg plot, that in the evening after reading 2 or 3 journals was falling asleep.

sometimes  it will rain so it will be a reason not to go to the garden... sounds bad, but the battle with the weeds really started... the minute i finished one end of veg plot its time to start again. i wish veg were growing so fast... escaping hens drive me mad, cause its lovely to see them free scraching around but when they do that in carrot row you feel like having stew...(chicken stew ...)

ok after crumpy part its a happy one. i got my mini tunnel done and its for cucumbers and few courgettes(early crop). Pollytunnel finally has an order- 50 tomatoes plant, 12 peppers, 6 cucumbers and lots of herbs and salads. its been great to have fresh salads and stir fries. strawberries has about 5 berries a day and my little ones having a fights in the morning. its a great feeling of success and all the hard work well paid of/..

 

happy gardening to you all.

The more you get, the more you want

 Its great to see everybody been so busy. Lots great ideas and knowlege can be found on Garden .ie and thanks to people who still has some time to put very important note to all of us...

My pollytunnel is full. One day i probably will break my neck of trying to pass all the pots and trays. Been so cold at nights so most of plants not ready for outside planting.. well tomatoes are done- 50 in total and have some really unusual thanks to Chilippers and Olga. Looking forward to see some fruits of my hard labour.... My peppers are still tiny and went to pots. ONly planted 7 cucumbers, cause i have a plan- NEW Polytunnel for Cucumbers... Its going to be smaller and lower only for cucumbers and courgettes, maybe melon. My brother is coming to make it in 2 weeks. Great more to do, more to plant...  never enough

.

happy gardening to you all. hope it will rain cause I am on the edge....
