Garden and Greenhouse update 15.05.18 UK

Well in the UK we seem to have been blessed with another bout of fine weather with clear skies and temperatures in to the 20c+ (68f+) and this has really brought both the garden and the greenhouse on.

the strawberries carrot and peas have made a big push

the apple trees have started to blossom This apple tree fell victim so an over zealous child climbing through the gap to retrieve a ball and snapped a branch, i'm pleased to see i caught it early enough and taped it up and that its managed to heal itself and it looking more healthier than ever

weeding done onto planting some beetroot and radishes in a gap

In the greenhouse

this has been great with us managing to get a daily harvest of salad leaves but the sharp increase in heat has seem many of the plants go to seed so these will be removed and composted if we cant use them and back filled with the last of the chili plants to go in marigolds and herbs.
