Went out to check out the garden this morning and there are buds bursting to life everywhere
These are my grapevines that I grew from cuttings last year.
Looking lovely
Hubby made me my first wicking bed
I’ve got four more of these barrels so there are more coming
I’ve planted bush beans to hopefully get an early harvest
Fingers crossed they take off
Finished the two pram blankets for the charity box
Using up all my odds and ends feels good. I don’t like waste
And I’m sure someone will like them
It’s Father’s Day today
So to all the dads enjoy your special day
Stay safe and well
See ya
We had to go and goggle wicking beds. We kind of do it in the garden here where F buried 2litre plastic bottles neck down with their bottom cut off so that she can deliver water under the soil to stop the sun taking it all away and to make plant roots reach DOWN for water rather than respond to surface watering and get dried out too easily. What other things do you grow in them? Well done on your grape cuttings - the est or make dome wine?
ReplyDeleteHopefully the vines grow and we get to eat some home grown grapes
DeleteYou can grow pretty much anything I plan on planting tomatoes zucchini’s cucumbers and anything else I can think of once I have them all in
Anyway you can save watering a garden during a hot summer is a good idea
We have Father day in June and it hard to grow grapes here in Idaho. I'm 48 degree North.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
