It’s funny how easy it is to out off those little jobs that you absolutely know need to be done. We’ve been saying since last summer, “oh we better sort those netting frames.” But you know what it’s like… We out off and out off. Finally though, a morning of […]
There is still a level of excitement in the house over the fact that we have things growing. Helped I think, by the fact that they are in my office, so I see them every day. It’s pretty cool actually. And I do chuckle a bit at the fact that […]
January has given us everything the weather fairies could throw at us, rain, wind, snow, ice, frost and the odd sunbeam. But even better, it means we can finally give you that review of the bubble wrapped greenhouse. A few months back, we put messages out on all our platforms […]

This week we finally managed to tackle the first video in what is going to be a series on propagation. It’s a topic that has been requested numerous times as we are all trying to save the pennies and reduce the small fortune we are all guilty of spending on […]
It’s no secret to you guys that I get a bit down in winter when the garden is at it’s least productive and coincidentally least green. But sometimes you need to take the hit, because then you have the chance to make sure the garden has everything it needs, to […]
As you guys know, we wrapped our greenhouse up in bubblewrap this year to keep it as cosy as possible without installing heating. We had 100% expected that by now we’d be able to give you a proper update on how it was standing up to the frosts and cold […]
