Foggy Day

 

     

     Daffodils looking cheerful through the fog , on my way to church this morning .


As I mentioned yesterday , Cucumber "Carmen" ( the long ones ) have germinated . So away we go to the potting shed .


All five seeds germinated . Premier Seeds Direct are always reliable seeds .
I scoop out each one with a bundle of the warm compost they are already growing in .


They'll soon get their roots down  .


They still need a little more warmth .


So I have brought them back indoors and they are now on my bedroom windowsill . The windowsill is becoming a bit chockablock ! 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱
  Just a little bit overwhelming !  
  I ordered a couple of windowsill plant trays and will be bringing the Sweet Peppers and maybe some of the Tomato plants down stairs and onto the study windowsill . Then when the second lot of Cucumber seeds germinate (Cucumber "Merlin " F1 the small ones ), there will be more space for them on the Garland propagator .

I then spent a couple of miserable hours swooshing water out of my greenhouse with a dustpan and brush . 
 Very hard work , it was like a green algae coated paddling pool  .
      Very depressing .....I didn't take a before picture ..it was dreadful ... trust me !


I put some happy music on and danced a little ! Made it feel not so bad .πŸ’ƒπŸ»πŸ’πŸŒ»☀️⭐

There's nothing like a little bit of Bob Marley to cheer us up !

The drifting fog stayed all day .

 The grass is growing so fast , but the ground is too wet to use the lawn mower . 

Good for pulling weeds though . I might do some weeding tomorrow .

I need to prune my roses and take up my leeks .

I just need to see how my back feels tomorrow after all the swooshing I did this afternoon .

Maybe it'll be a stitching day beside the fire ...hmmm ...I like that idea  !  

                           ☀️  Peace and Love  πŸ’
