Talking Hope I'm not too late

I have been so, so busy and my garden looked like a bomb hit it, thankfully no neighbours at present, ooo the shame if there were.

Anyway, amazing what cutting the grass and a tidy up can do.
My strawberries are really slow, I bought them as plants last year but think I was too late in getting any fruits. Just hope now the sun has made an appearance....

Just bought:

Tomato Ailsa Craig Seeds
Sweet Corn F1 Prelude Seeds
Capsicum Worldbeater Seeds
Lettuce All The Year Round Seeds
Onion Sets Sturon (200g)
Chilli Peppers Chilli De Cayenne Seeds
Brussels Sprouts Bedford - Winter Harvest Seeds (try for 1st time)

Now just got to find new plastic cheap for my tunnel

Glad the bug has bit once more, MarkO
Your tunnel looked fab last year and your garden too. Do you have a plant nursery near you? They may well have some spare polytunnel plastic you could use to cover the frame.
Oh, and you're certainly not too late. Spring seems to be a few weeks behind anyhoo.

Few - well my garden and tunnel not as nice as last year, have been so busy my garden looks like a **** heap...

But got all my seeds sown, planted my onion set yesterday. Was out in the garden today turned my back for 10 mins, not 15 mins, 30 mins, 10 minutes and on my return my onion bulds were scattered over the garden and there was a big hole on my sprout patch!!!

Had to laugh
