I started to plant my tomatoes and 3 runner beans into my raised beds. They had outgrown my mini greenhouse and had been hardened off. I still have the capability of protecting them with fleece if necessary:
Some still waiting to go into the above plus pots.
3 dwarf runner beans:
I do wish we would have some rain. The ground is extremely dry and being on a water meter, I don't like to use the hose. However, I have been having to as everything is beginning to droop.
2 out of the next 3 beans have come up, obviously the 3rd one died in situ.
RIP, little bean!
ReplyDeleteWe're supposed to get some rain next week round here - hopefully you will too.

Do you have a bath? If so that is an ideal way of recycling the water. There is a way of draining the water from the washing machine too but not sure how.
ReplyDeleteYes but not many containers to pump out into. We do this when desperate such as during a drought.
DeleteI jealous of your plants mine are way behind. But I'm hopeful I'll still get some goodies over the summer.
ReplyDeleteI was late sowing so am pleased with the results.
DeleteYour raised bed and plants are looking good. We are watering ours every evening as dry as dust here in Suffolk.
ReplyDeleteI don’t think it will be long before the farmers have to use water hoses.
