What Jobs Are We Doing In The Garden Today 2020

Sadly nothing, just looking at everything getting battered. The wind noise is tremendously loud.......I blame it on Woo and his beans!!!

 

All I've done is make sure the birds have been fed and checked the greenhouse but on the whole had a lazy day..

 

Nothing today because of the weather.
The snapdragon seeds have come up but the eurigeron didn't make it. I forgot about them I think that they dried out, but got the old plants in my little grow house at the back.

 

The old chilli plants that are in the conservatory are getting greenfly. Might have to get rid of the plants, it might spread to my seedlings.

 

Same as others today, wind and rain, so no garden, been looking for container gardening books online in a few second hand book shops, some fantastic prices but so many books, which to choose

 

I filled more little pots to have ready for when the soil blocks need potting up. Then I covered the living room rug with heavy plastic. I had filled all of the hanging pots with new soil, placed the metal mesh on them and hung them back in the greenhouses last fall. So I brought all of them in to sit on the plastic and thaw. Then I let myself thaw out.

I will start my 4 o'clocks in the next few days because I remember them being slow growers. The rest, I won't sow until early next month. I started them at this time last year and it was far too early. They seemed to be finished too early in the summer for my liking.

 

all day with strong winds and decidedly chilly. A day of making coasters and a cheeseboard. The Wrens were in bed by 5.30 this evening. I think they were fed up with the weather too.

 

Logan & Upsydaisy. So sorry ladies to hear of your back problems, I know what it's like. I have gross degenerative disease of the spine. Heat pads are good for easing the pain, also some of these stick on medicated patches. Hope you soon feel better.xx

 

Not a lot, unless I have to go out and pick up a neighbours fence or a branch falls on the house.

 

Thank you shiney, yes it can be a problem but never with white fly with me.

 

Thank you Mike,sorry to hear about your back,my brother has got that.It's a lot better now, i know that if i rest it, it eases off don't like taking painkillers one reason is because they give me heartburn, the other is because that in my case the pain is there for a reason.x

 

Rain has stopped and wind has abated slightly but parts of the garden are still very muddy. Sat in conservatory with coffee watching a baby Rat scoffing sunflower seed and trying to convince myself that I do wish to go outside and garden for awhile . Run out of storage space for coasters so I've no excuse really, although I do need to make some more cheeseboards/ wine trays at some point today.
