Rachael and Felix dropped by for an afternoon of knitting, and they took away a couple of UFOs ( Unfinished Objects )

A frosty night

one comment

It feels like its going to be very cold tonight, after a very warm day ( it got to 27 C in the poly tunnel), so I’m worried about the 2 remaining sweetcorn that survived the last frost.

Disaster in the Poly Tunnel

one comment

I foolishly put my sweetcorn plants out into the poly tunnel to harden off. They were in a secondary mini greenhouse which I thought would protect them from any weather. How wrong I was, most of them got frosted. It looks like 2 or 3 will survive, so I’ll have to get replanting.
