Saturday 17th February

A very cold and wet week since Sunday last.
Overnight in greenhouse varied from -0.5 to 3.5

 Monday just checked greenhouse, all OK.
Tuesday greenhouse OK.
Jayden came today and helped me to put a weed proof membrane around the transplanted Gooseberry plants and the Nashi Pear.
I will need to get some pebbles or sum such to cover that.

 Rest of week not good weather wise, very wet.

 Friday went into greenhouse and transplanted some "All year round" lettuces that have come on well since planting the seed. A brighter day Friday.
I also transplanted some Ailsa Craig tomato seedings.
That are doing best of all the tomatoes.

 Saturday was a great day in the garden 

 Alison repotted he strawberry plants.
I moved the raspberry canes from the fence to the raspberry plot.
I weeded the raspberry plot and top dressed with own compost.
I planted some of the Spiraxis bulbs we were delivered this week.

 Green house going very well, all things looking good.
