Growing Our Own Veg 2012

We love growing our own vegetables and fruit. Have grown some tomatoes from tiny plants bought from supermarket and just planted them out today into a new plastic green house which took 3 of us about an hour to put together, have 6 tomato plants in grow bags, 6 sweet peppers almost ready to plant into grow bags. We bought a courgette, cucumber plant and another plum tomato plant and a rhubarb crown too, Oh and some potato tubers to plant up next weekend when we have cleared the ground a bit from the recent rain everything has just grown like mad. Also bought some seeds to plant soon - carrots, chives, beetroots, parsnips and a FREE packet of tomato seeds - bit I think we will have enough tomatos. Done enough for today ... Garden Blog
