First grow your own produce
Re: Perchy's Pottager Patch 2012
Great spuds and what a clever girls you have growing them for you.
I think you are getting bored with your garden though, why not come over and do mine ... shouldn't take you longer than 6 months or so

The potatoes were delicious, and so is the cherry jam, managed to get a photo this afternoon of some redcurrants, not quite sure what to do with them?
A couple and I mean couple of tomatoes in the greenhouse
The courgettes are not doing so great but the nasturtians are peeking through
The plot doesn't look too bad, but alot of leaf on everything and not much else
and some lovely roses, they smell divine

Redcurrant Jelly
I haven't got a single nasturtium this year - normally the self-seeded ones pop up all over the place. I have my suspicions as to who the culprits might be

Isn't that funny, I have loads of self seeders, am still rescuing them now, and yes, the little loves love them
Re: Perchy's Pottager Patch 2012
I beat you on the redcurrants Perchy, I filled 2 ice cream tubs full. I gave mine to a friend who makes jams and chutneys.
I am still over your garden, I need someone like you to give me ideas on what to do with mine. So far people just come up with get a digger and flatten the lot.

I seem to have been so busy of late and the weather has been rubbish so have made a concerted effort the last couple of days to get a grip around the garden, not too much hard work as my back is a bit uncomfortable but lots of pottering, I have taken a few pics and was pleasantly surprised, not a great bounty but a bounty that has cheered me up garden wise

Re: Perchy's Pottager Patch 2012
I seem to have had so much on lately that the garden has taken a back seat apart from a little tidying here and there, when I put the girls to bed last night I spotted a little bit more of a bounty, a couple of courgettes and the yellow ones are now coming on really well, some green beans and the sweetcorn is coming on, I even have a pumpkin albeit small, but it is growing up the trellis? will take some pics this weekend as I am pottering only, I am not going to do alot, this will be my weekend of pampering myself, so pottering in the garden it will be
The chilli's are really quite big now, I think I am going to make chilli jam, see us through for a while, I will need to get some from Aldi also as there will not be enough and they are reasonably priced, I think some of the potatoes are ready too so will dig some up for Sunday and then let the girls have half an hour on there to give the soil a good digging
Well done everyone, some lovely pics of goodies and end results, I am a little just doesn't seemed to have happened for me this year, but next year will give me another chance.
