Weekend away

I have just got back from a well earned rest. I had been worried that the potted plants would have dried out but the tray I left them in was still full of water.

It has been hot over the weekend with lots of sunshine. The rocket and onion seeds have started to emerge and my makeshift coldframe has done the trick of protecting them from animal damage.

It looks like the slugs are back. Last night my basil plants were attacked. I've ordered some more nematodes to keep the slimy suckers in check.

We popped into the garden centre and bought some long canes to support the runner beans. I made a wig-wam and tied some lengths twine around it at several height intervals.

Still haven't finished the raised bed...
