Shoots and leaves...
The whims and woes, highs and lows, of trying to grow fruit and veg in Nordic latitudes.
We've been so busy with the honey we haven't spent much time in the polytunnel. But the squashes and the pumpkins are really doing well now. I think we will have to pick some and store them before the Slow Food market in October, otherwise they will be too enormous to get on the trailer! Before the autumn we will have to put a drainage ditch down the middle of the tunnel as it gets quite damp in one or two places when it rains really hard. We will also put some chicken wire at both ends of the tunnel to keep the rabbits out. Not sure how to keep the mice out though...
