Brassicas 🌱🌱🌱🌱 update

Up and out at 4.30 am to watch the sun rise .

 

 It's forecast to be sunshine all day , so I wanted to get the vegetable garden watered early .

In the shed I have been shifting everything around to make space on the bench for the big batch of mixed brassica seedlings that I'll be pricking out and potting up later on .

 

                                   (You have to click twice ! )

All my seeds are germinating now except the Beetroot ...hmmm .... 🤔The last wave of Beetroots are outside in the ground and doing really well . This second lot are from the same seed packet so they should be alright .

  It's only been four days since I sowed them , so I'm sure they'll be up soon .

I might prick some of them out later on ....see how I feel ....maybe I'll do this tomorrow .

        Pots all ready to go !

Some nice Romaine lettuce leaves ready to pick . The other mixed lettuces in the background have been slow due to the heatwave last week . 

 I think we have a couple more tubs of new potatoes . These have done really well this year . Delicious !

I have really got to work hard to keep everything well watered . We are forecast another longer spell of hot weather and it is going to be hot today .

  My water barrels are empty !  Got to take the hose up there to fill the watering cans .

After I've done some laundry and got it out on the line and lunch prepared ......

   ......I'm going to sit in the shade and do some patchwork today .

                               See you later alligator !

                                            Peace and Love 🕊️
