Default How was your summer?

g'day chookie,

not that i ahd a real lot in but the tomatoes we had in in did very
good we planted ox heart and some volunteers, the snake beans planted
sometime ago are still producing well they are always reliable, the
volunteer cucumber did great.

got new seedlings in now and though only planted for a couple of weeks
or so we ahve picked fruit from the zucchinis already, and the corn is
a couple of feet high plus the new ox hearts are beginning to flower,
nothing flash from the capsicums as yet but they are doing ok.

we manage to keep beds moist enough using grey water and lots of
mulch, plus we reckon the mushroom compost is the way to go it has
good moisture retention.
