Hello everyone!
haven't had time and patience to update recently. My joblife is currently a mess and draws a lot of energy. But heres a current status of our garden:
Finally, finally plantet the physalis and sweet potatoes out. They where really getting desperate in their cointainers... Physalis at the top half of that image, the ones with the big and fluffy leaves, sweet potatoes on the bottom half, due to a recent aphid attack almost without leaves but still went in with strong roots.
Relocated the biggest of my own 3 rhubarb seedlings outside. It was getting too big for it's corner in the greenhouse. The other two are nwhere near that big. mind you thea where planted as seeds mid-march, and look at this 3 month old monstrosity...
The cucumbers are now finally starting to pick up their growth, I think they needed a lot of time to adjust because of all those root voles. But now they are slowly getting taller and starting to flower.
The 1st raised gardenged is doing great. The first pea pods are developing, the carrots on the one side are also coming along nicely and on the other side yellow beetroots and endive are florishing as well.
The greenhouses are starting to get really green. Some of those tomatoplants are just exploding in growth. But no ripe tomatoes so far...
my fiancé was able to harvest a 10l bucket full of sweet cherries from our neighbours. And I finally braided the onions from the greenhouse into a little braid that hangs on the patio for storage reasons. I also produced around 0.75 l of elderflower sirup and 3.5l elderflower jam.
yum!
Hauro the bunny also had some nice trips to the garden.
and some flowery pics for general enjoyment
Aaaaaand I proudly introduce our froggy team. There are three of them croaking along, but sadly one of the is still a little bit shy so I have only pics of one...
