So now I can get rid of that nasty blue Builder's Bag. Hooray!
And of course the whole purpose of this project was to make a place to house big containers for growing things like potatoes, chillis and blueberries, so I have re-located all those pots I filled with soil the other day.
I have put 8 of the smaller pots into my two so-called "Seedling Greenhouses", which will hopefully allow the soil in them to warm up a bit before planting-time. The greenhouses are weighted-down with bricks to stop them blowing away!
It's too early to plant the potatoes just yet, but they are chitting away quite nicely on the windowsill in an unheated spare bedroom, and should be ready in about a month's time.
This is "Charlotte" (my favourite), an ever-reliable and heavy-cropping Second Early variety.
You are so organised Mark and indeed keeping yourself busy after retirement. I still need to order my seeds if I want to get back into growing veg again.
ReplyDeleteGreat work mark and it looks really good too. Hope you like it
ReplyDeleteLooks great! You have really inspired me to make a place to put pots this year so I can get growing again.
ReplyDeleteOrderly as expected!
ReplyDeleteIt has produced a lovely large space - I wonder whether any flowers will sneak in? :-)
ReplyDeleteI doubt it! (Unless chilli flowers count...)
DeleteThat looks so good! Very organized and tidy. A nice view when you look out the windows as the season progresses.
ReplyDeleteExcellent timing, Mark. 2017 better watch out!
ReplyDeletethat was quick work you haven't wasted anytime in reusing the space! Sarah x
