Well it has been a long time since my last post!
Alot has been happening :) i have started my own veggie garden installation business called "The Edible Garden" www.facebook.com/TheEdibleGarden.Organic
Its been a slow start but starting a gardening business at the start of autumn wasnt that bright :) so i will be relaunching come spring!
In my home garden i have limes ripening, as well as little lime and lime flowers (entire lime tree has come bezerk!) My lemonade tree has also got 4 fruits/lemonades (what to call them?!?) that are growing well! I have been picking lettuce and bok/pak choy like its going out of fasion and my pea and snow peas have just started producing! yummy!
Aprils Numbers!
342g Fig
10g Raspberries
207g Beans
54g Capsicum
55g Eggplant
173g Pak Choy
6g Carrots (still cant seem to get it right)
34g Zuccini
30g Lettuce
10g Snow peas
Total: 921g
The Warm autumn weve had has messed up planting big time! Although the pak/bok choy has done quite well they have been riddled with holes from the cabbage white butterfly! Which has stayed around alot longer this year! Thankfully they have now disappeared and everything is making a recovery!
Snails and slugs are doing a little bit of damage but nothing too terrible at the moment.
My Pepino has reflowed and has set a dozen little pepinos....yum!
Bananas have stopped putting out leaves....im thinking that at some point they should be producing fruit! I must pick up some clear plastic to put around them to keep them warm!
