Yawn... Wakey Wakey...!!! #3

Our beans reached the top of the canes last week so Mr K pinched out the tops,although I wanted to put some canes across the top of the wigwams to let them run along the tops but he said the flowers won't set if we don't pinch them out:p

When we go over this morning I will take some photos of the spuds so you can get an idea what I mean about their health:D

Our tomato fruit in the garden are getting quiet big and the tomato plant that I put in water after it had snapped off is growing roots so will be able to put it back in the ground soon.Just hope that we don't lose the toms to blight this year

All the cats that live with us adopted and our own are whilting and prefere to lay on my plants in the borders to get some shade:hehe::(

 

Morning all :luv:
It is raining here and is soooo badly needed.
Had a lovely day yesterday-went to the Bishops garden ( next to our Cathedral) which had been opened to the public in aid of charity. It was beautiful and there was a band playing too.
Then I went on to a friends leaving party (she is moving back to France) and had a lovely afyernoon!

 

Good morning everyone,

Its warm and overcast here, so it looks like we might get some rain today.:thumb:

I'm off to Toronto in awhile for my husband, which i dont mind, there is a great garden centre on my way :hehe:

 

Good afternoon everyone but late getting on here today but better late than never:D

Shiney,Wigwams /Teepees,does it really matter as long as they are scrambling up something:flag::hehe: I checked them yesterday and they already seem to be going above the canes again even though Mr K pinched out the tops.He put in two beans to each cane so we have mutiple stems coming from each one,but as long as they produce beans then I don't mind:p Our Blight resistant toms are doing very well and have some large toms on them at the moment although we have steady rain falling at the moment,so hope they are going to be ok and don't get blighted.

At least everything is getting a drink,although I shall miss sitting outside of an evening if this rain keeps on going and we can't take the gazebo down while it is wet:(

Have dug up lots more spuds but the Pink Fir Apple are still quiet small so they will have a bit longer,but have now pulled up all my onions and shallots.The shallots havn't done very well this year and the clumps have very small bulbs on them so they are a dissapointment and I won't be able to pickle them as they are so tiny:p

Hope you all have a great afternoon and evening

 

good morning all

i have had a little rain too - could do with a bit more

loopy

 

Goodnight everyone :luv:
We have had a lot of rain here and my garden is so grateful for it

 

Good morning everyone,

Very busy at the moment,had two large bowls of Gooseberries to top and tail and they have taken ages to do and I had to resist eating too many of them.They were the nice red variety so the ones I like whereas the green tarty ones Mr Kandy can have them:DOur peas are all but done now but am pleased with the amount we had off of them and only found a couple of pea maggots as we don't spray them:p

Shiney,good info about the extra growth on the Runner Beans,I neede to take my steps over to the allotment when the rain stops falling and see if I can add those extra canes along the tops:p

Hope we get some sun back again today now that the garden and allotment plants have been nicely watered and hope you all have a good day

 

Morning Shiney,

Sorry I forgot to mention about you going to the funeral:dh:and glad to hear that all went well and that you had a good celebration of his life.My tunes would be this one
[nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaMApWem9RM"]YouTube- John Miles - "Music" (was my first love) - live 1985[/nomedia] played at full volume,but I don't know whether you are allowed to play tunes at Green Burial Sites especially on Wight,but I doubt if I shall get either so Mr K will probably stick me on the compost heap,oh and I also want an Oak tree growing on top of me:D and also Celine Dion singing the titanic song:p

Are Moggots the same as maggots in the peas:flag::hehe: I have a lightweight set of sets I can use the only problem is Mr K has put up windproof netting so I might not be able to get the steps in,oh well I shall have to stand on tip toe and see how I get on:D

Good morning Woo,hope you get on ok with the Power shower.:gnthb:and lets hope all goes well with the judging of the garden comp this year:thmb::luv:

Have a good day both of you

 

Good morning everyone,

Its sunny here, and warm, no rain today either.
