Lol, so im back :) married now, honeymoon gone and back to the real world!
My garden survived it all thanks to the dutiful watering of my friend jess! Thanks jess...lol
Now that autumn is in full swing the garden has slowed down dramatically. The onions seeds all sprouted and are doing very well as are my heirloom beetroots. The carrots however all got eaten......by something. lol...one day they were there and healthy the next they were all gone...i think it may have been a cat. grrr anyway going to put leeks in their spot. Only 1 broccoli plant has survived thus far but will be sowing some more seeds tomorrow.
ok so what you have missed out on...Marchs numbers
Over 48.5ml (again not exact because of the wedding)
1.313kg!!
raspberry-124g
fig- 364g
beans-219g
swiss chard- 126g
strawberry- 48g
capsicum- 374g
pepino gold- 58g
The pumpkin and apple cucumber havnt worked as for the second year in a row i planted them way to late! grrr...and the sweet potato did not thrive as the second i put it in the ground it stopped being humid....lol...
My banana's are still going strong, producing new leaves but slowing down as it gets colder. The cherry has dropped all its leaves and the nectarine is on its way. I planted garlic a few weeks ago and it all sprouted and is continuing to do so!
I have a friend who has asked for some advice on growing fruit/vegies on a small balcony in canberra, that doesnt get alot of sun :) So stay tuned!
