We have got tomatoes but I would guess we are a month away from getting ripe ones. What has done well, raspberries, cherries, strawberries, potatoes, lettuce, carrots and courgette . What is looking good, grapes, apples, peaches, red and brown onions, basil, carrots, beetroot for relish, corn and cucumbers. Just put more seeds in trays of red onion , lettuce, leeks. Carrots direct in the ground couple of days ago. Yet to plant parsnips. Great thread and get envious of your early growth up North.

It's all about making the most of what you've got RC. You must have horses otherwise you wouldn't grow parsnips Water is a real problem for me as I'm using 100+ litres a day, it must be a struggle for you in dry old Canterbury unless you're on town supply? I have 3600 litres for my garden and birds but the rest of it has to come out of my tank. I really need 10 000 litres to see the garden through the summer. I will try to score another 7 or 8 IBC's before winter. It takes me an hour to water my garden and I do that every day at the moment. Good to see you grow courgettes down there, I imagine capsicums would do well also |
