Update from last week

Been to the plot a few times this week to either re-pot a few things and water, the main ones that had been re-potted are the toms and peppers. Got the odd Tom left to plant but I have enough already in, just the peppers left to sort out. Some of the peppers are left in larger pots to grow on and some straight into the soil, same as the chilli plants some will be in the soil and the rest in pots. The peppers seem to be taking some time to grow  for some reason, don't know if that's because I've used my own compost / leaf mould and shop bought compost mixed together. 

Anyway as long as I get something I don't mind taking a bit longer to grow, the onions are filling out quite nicely. Spuds have started to produce flowers and the cabbages have been pecked by the birds, some of them will make it to the end but have lost a few. All week it's been dry so have to water in the greenhouse and outside, this weekend it's been raining which is real good for everything.  Only problem it's doesn't half help the weeds to take over the plot, I've been hoeing more than before and it seems to be helping. Will soon or later have to be on hands and knee's to weed a bit better, but will carry on with the hoeing for a bit longer it saves on the knees. 

Just a few snaps on how this are growing.
