Shoots and leaves...
The whims and woes, highs and lows, of trying to grow fruit and veg in Nordic latitudes.
The strawberry plants look amazing with huge clusters of white flowers on every plant. These are Korona - an early-cropping variety with exceptionally large fruits. Let's hope they taste as good as they look. There were a lot of events in the local community this weekend but we didn't get to many of them. I did buy a few herbs at Tahvoset's open day and planted them in the veg garden this evening (except for the coriander which is in the polytunnel).
This afternoon we tied up the greenhouse tomatoes and I also planted out the cucumbers, aubergines and the red peppers in the polytunnel. This afternoon I planted the kale and some french beans in the vegetable garden and did some more weeding. I also planted out some parsley grown from seed. It is going to rain tonight so everything will get watered in nicely.
