back to British weather :(

After ten days of glorious sunshine we are now back in the grip of a typical British summer. Today it's been quite chilly with a brisk easterly wind blowing so it was a case of much pottering in the greenhouse to keep warm.

The tomatoes are coming along nicely as this plant shows. I have ten plants in the greenhouse with a couple of 'tumbler' types ready to pot on and put outside when I can find some space.

much more over at my blog:

Comment by Darren Blick on June 3, 2012 at 19:12: They look good Colin, what variety are they

Also, please tell me you do not pee on your cabbages and I have read that wrong?

No, Darren, I don't pee directly on my cabbages. Whatever would the neighbours think.

I keep a pot in the shed and dilute it about 5:1. We need to get a bit less uptight about using human waste as fertilizer. The way we gobble up resources it may be all we have in the future!!

Comment by Catherine on June 3, 2012 at 22:55: But Colin....if we drink alcohol before we p, will the grass come up half cut?? LOL! That's my hubby's latest joke about us gardeners...LOL!

I have started a P Bucket too...dilute to the top!!! Free sterile liquid feed for our plants!!
