CHRISTMAS POTATOES
Seed potatoes for planting in late
August will become available now. But them when you see them
because they tend to sell out quickly. If you don't buy them soon
you may well end up with a variety that is not your first choice.
They will keep in the fridge for several weeks without any real
deterioration. |

WEEKLY FEEDING OF RAISED BEDS
WEED REGULARLY
WATER WHEN NEEDED
Have a think about how your raised beds can be watered if you go
on holiday for a week or two. Neighbours are the best solution,
failing that an automatic watering system may be the solution. These
are easy to install for a raised bed and are very reliable.
