Just popped over to visit Danni and Dale to check out the progress of their veggie patch. It is going very well on account of all the rain we have just had and the TLC they have been giving it.
So here is the comparison photos again for those who missed it first and second time around. Click to enlarge any photo.
Week Zero:
Week Four:
Week Seven:
Everything is going crazy! The tomatoes have doubled in size, taller than Mason, and most have fruit on them. The lettuces are all ready for harvest, the parsley is taking over the front part.
The view from the other side is now equally as impressive.
The sweetcorn seed I gave Dale is going strong, and the spring onions, cucumbers, pumpkins, and zucchini are growing well. The other day, I recommended that they fertilize again with Dynamic Lifter (DL) with a sprinkle around each plant. Danni did this before the rain, it has dissolved all of the DL and it should now be spurring on the crop. I am very proud of them, and they have done so well. Dale mentioned that he is going to extend the patch even further past the tree stump now that the soil is all wet. "Great idea," I gleamed, "just don’t forget to mulch and top dress with DL!"
Well done neighbours! Keep up the great work and the enthusiasm. Soon you will be harvesting the fruits of your labour.
