Well done Deb LOL  

Mine are starting to get a little bigger now.  They were ripening too soon when they were tiny but have slowed down.

:^O OH said he needs 200 tomatoes from those plants to get his money back. Potting mix, fertilizer, lol, he's not doing too well so far. I think the pots he planted tem in are too big

I think I'd better get some tips from Karen next year

Do you put straw around yours?

I do.............the left overs from the guinea pig cages.............mixed with poop.

This might sound like a silly question but.............how do I know when my chillies are ready to pick.

Hubby bought this poor neglected punnet of three chilly plants...........and planted them all thinking we would be lucky if any of them grew.............and of course they all have.

They are yellow chillies.

Here is a picture of our grand daughters shiner.

She is saying her life is ruined...........she will never be able to be seen in public ever again.

Youch Flashie.  That's quite a nasty one!  Luckily kids heal very quickly.

Tell her that her friends will be jealous.

Karen might know about the chillies Flashie.  We didn't put straw around the tomatoes,but we will next year

Ouchies at that eye!

I think we all need some guinea pigs.  with my planters I used a lot of my home 'grown' compost from the Aerobin.  

It worked well with the herbs too.  There is a big book that is all about veggies, from planting to caring for and right up to recipes or ways to cook them.  I really must get hold of one of them.  I can't remember it's name but I will recognise it in the shops (or on ebay).

Just testing if I can add pictures here. it seems all good  🙂

Liveworld seems to like our pictures:^O Deb
