The weather has been amazing! Who would have known that the end of a month that started with such breezy days would end so spectacularly. A lot has happened in the Garden during September – We have pruned back all the plants around the raised beds to let in more light, as it was getting a little to shady for the poor veggies. – A Space has been cleared for the construction of timber framed polycarbonate green house which we will build from scratch during the winter months, we shall do a post on that to let you all see how it is constructed in a few months. – The runner and french beans have all come to an end and have been removed as have the courgettes. The cucumbers which I mentioned in my last post have loved the hot weather we have been having and they have produced a few very tasty small fruits and there are more developing nicely. – For over the autumn we have some beautiful and strong looking brussel sprout and cabbage plants along with a couple of rows of potatoes, leeks and onions. The cabbages and onions will over winter and be ready in the spring but hopefully the brussels, potatoes and leeks will be on the table for Christmas dinner.
Not had a chance to upload any pics but will do it soon
