Martyns is the machinery man and tends to be in charge of watering etc, but in most things we just do what is needed although we do have our own project like my cyclamen and Martyn tends to look after the tomatoes and prune the grapevine as it is too high for mini me. I so the vines on the plot though.<br /><br />I guess it would be interesting to record who does what.- for us not you!Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-91934804218699235362014-09-17T09:23:51.708+00:002014-09-17T09:23:51.708+00:00We have some grapes on the plot, Kelli but after t...We have some grapes on the plot, Kelli but after the cold August I doubt that they will be edible.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-6340766109270978452014-09-17T09:22:37.616+00:002014-09-17T09:22:37.616+00:00The grapes are pretty reliable Damo.The grapes are pretty reliable Damo.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-37320412689820605432014-09-16T22:33:01.700+00:002014-09-16T22:33:01.700+00:00Wow sue… now that’s an impressive working greenhou...Wow sue… now that’s an impressive working greenhouse! What amount of work must be involved in taking care of plants in your greenhouse and down at the plot. I’m wondering how you divide the tasks :-)<br /><br />Great images with labels too btw – you have to be inspiring others to grow food plants! You’ve inspired me once again to think about growing cyclamen from seed :-D <br />Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12956905954971466579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-66566139155731304422014-09-15T20:22:51.030+00:002014-09-15T20:22:51.030+00:00With the grapes you could be living in Italy!

Are the cyclamens easy to grow from seed ? If so, I might have a go, as they look so good. You have so much in there, and it is all so productive. Fantastic peppers !

Do you find the elephant garlic has a different flavour to the normal kind? I grew it for the first time this year (you were right when you said it was slower to start, but it got there in the end). I'm not quite sure what I think of it at the moment.
