On Saturday I decided it was time to tidy up my greenhouse ready for spring sowing. I'll use the word greenhouse lightly as its handmade from recycled windows which my neighbour donated and reject concrete blocks.
Unorganized mess |
Space to walk, work and sit |
Never the less it does the
job really well, and has withstood some very strong winds in the last
few years since Mr O constructed it for me.

On Tuesday I sowed my broad beans in recycled loo roll middles, placed into recycled plastic containers. I prefer to sow them in the greenhouse and plant them out in the garden when they are strong and healthy. That way the seeds aren't eaten by rodents or anything else that might fancy eating them before they get a chance to germinate

I have just soaked some Sweet Pea seeds ready to sow tomorrow. I did sow sweet pea seeds in the autumn but not all of them germinated so I do need to sow more to ensure to have enough blooms to keep the bees happy again this year

Until next time
Blessings to all
