My lovely son played 'man' today and helped me install a water butt into the back garden, in the pouring rain. I'm hoping to connect my
watering system upto it for next year. I figured there is no point this year as I am coming to the end of garden cropping time and can use the exiating system until winter when it needs to come out anyway. I have a timer on the
watering system, but it connects to a tap with a screw thread and I want to connect it to the tap on the water butt, so I will have to see if I can find a connector (suggestions welcome).
I love mince pies at christmas so as I'm going to have a bumper tomato crop so thought Id make use of some of those green tomatoes early.
I was pleasantly suprised with the results and now have 3 large jars of mincemeat for my christmas mince pies, yummy.

Such a helpful post! I’ve been struggling with weeds in my garden for years, and the idea of using Weed matting fabric is a game-changer. Does the fabric allow for good water drainage, or do I need to make adjustments for that? Also, how long does it typically last before needing replacement? Thanks for the tips, definitely going to give this a try!
ReplyDeleteGarden bags for plants are such a game changer! I’ve recently started using them for my tomatoes and peppers, and the growth has been fantastic. The breathable fabric helps the roots stay healthy, and they’re much easier to manage than traditional pots. Plus, they’re great for saving space if you don’t have a lot of garden beds. I also love how lightweight they are, making them easy to move around. If anyone’s considering them, I highly recommend giving them a try – they’ve made my gardening experience so much better!
