Good day in the Garden

At last I'm catching up with the gardening. Late but never mind. 

Today planted (and dug my plots in preparation  Fennel - new one experimental), onions, and beetroot.
In Polly Tunnel set mangetout, french beans, and Asparagus. Going, sweet corn, tomatoes, runner beand, potatoes (in bags), and some flowers. Mysenbrianthemums (mouthful) Godetia, and nicotenia. Old faithful french marigolds well on their way. I save the seeds from last years plants.

Tired now. Going to cook Trout for tea.

Gardening TIp - get rid of bugs the Bio way

When you're overrun with Caterpillars on your Brassicas don't buy insecticide be greener. Take any old spray gun (ex Mr Muscle type will do when empty), fill with tap water and put a squirt of Fairy Liquid in.
Now go and spray the Cabbages with this - be generous. The Caterpillars don't like it and will soon curl up and drop off.

Hey Presto - no chemicals - well except "Clean broccoli".
