Veggie Patch...




Ok...don't laugh..for those of you that know me, I am not known for my gardening skills..try as I might! Anyhow, we recently went for dinner at Helen and Jon's house and most of it was picked out of the garden..so I was inspired!


I have decided to grow them in pots ( well...buckets!!! I watch my pennies too much..this is the cheap version!) so they can come with me if we move! I am hoping that my venture is succesful....although I am slightly confused as to how I am going to know when the carrots are ready as they grow underground...ha ha!! I think I may have to re home some of them, as I think they will need more space soon..or maybe that is wishful thinking!

So....last weekend I planted carrots, celery, broccoli, silverbeet and lettuce...I have been so organised and watered them everyday etc....
THEN I came home from work on Tuesday and sat in the garden...and I suddenly had a thought...the water has nowhere to go!!! Ooooppppsss, so Graham drilled holes into the bottom of them all and we we're both splattered with soil and water!

Will keep you posted!
