Mine's going really well. Does your capsicum grow well Doublemama? I didn't have much success with them last year so didn't bother this time round.
I have flowers just beginning to pop up on my tomato plants, have been picking broad beans and celery for a while. I'm looking forward to the strawberries and blueberries taking off a bit more. |

I only got to plant mine last week as we have been away for ages. My peas are begining to flower now and we have been eating strawberries since we got home. Only got tomoatoes, lettuce, peppers and corn in at the moment, waiting till my bokashi breaks down in my other garden before I can plant there -------------

Blessedmama . I haven't grown capsicums before but read that they need lot's of heat so have put clear plastic around it to hopefully create more heat. Will keep you posted on how they are going. Waiting for my DH to finshed the frames for my strawberries as the birds are beating us to them!!

Wow! I wish we had a climate like napier, my mum's garden is amazing and she lives in napier. Sounds like you have been working really hard in your garden. When and what do your feed your garden? |

We've just started ours - built a raised garden bed last weekend and today planted tomatoes, lettuce, basil, carrots, zucchini and strawberries.
Fingers crossed all grows well! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

We've got heaps of strawberries (we have a daily strawberry hunt with the little man), tomatoes growing like crazy but none ripe yet, bok choy that the snails got most of, heaps of cabbage, and some catterpillar-infested broccoli  -------------

Last years 16 strawberry plants gave over hundred for us this year. However just planted out 60 in the new two beds and given the others away. We have quite a few strawberries every day.
Peas and beans producing nicely. Spinach about twice a week (didnt go wild this year with the planting of it) Salad ingredients coming along. Carrots popping up. Tomatoes flowering although some giving funny flowers. But first year we are doing some heirlooms with the hybrids. Basil starting to come along, celery okay, Chilli and peppers is doing okay but think i started it too long. And the Courgettes is starting to produce some this week so we are eating loads. Still need to get a herb garden going as I only have parsley, oregon and basil going and need to plant out the rosemary but just dont know where to put it. blueberries have tons on them and all the fruit trees either have small fruits on or starting to flower up. Yay to the jungle. And I want to start growing the mercury bay that is going to replace the grass sections so I do NOT kill my husband with nagging on when he is going to mow the lawn. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
