Hi and welcome to Fresh-Food-From-Garden-2-Plate, Well this time we are now sowing Sweet Corn, plus More carrots, Parsnips,and keeping all the weeds under control, by every time we come into the Garden,we pull a bucket for the Chooks to eat and they love them,and its greens for them keeps their eggs with nice dark yokes.
Ok so our sweet corn is expecially planted, first by soaking in a organic fertiliser of liquid, over night.
Then into a nicely dug bed with no weeds in, and after a week they are up and running, after two weeks they are at least 9 inches high, so keep them going, with every fortnight, a liquid spray not too heavy just enough to let them know they are cared for.
Ok then we planted more Carrots, which every month we like to plant another bed of them as so as we have them all year round, as well as Parsnips because they nearly always go together in a soup, or a baked dinner, we soak them for about an hour in a nice organic liquid and then straight into the ground, they take about 10 days to shoot, then keep the water up to them expecially if they are in sandy soil.
And a general garden keeping, like weeding and keeping the soil dug over and when the beds are empty keep them well watered and plenty of organic Compost dug into them and this helps the garden worms to do their job by taking the compost deep into the soil, and helps it air rate the ground, and keeps the soil fertile.
Ok we now its time to say we hope you have a great Festive Season and don't forget what Christmas is all about and how it all started, with Christ being born as a babe, and came to save the lost, so hope you had a wonderful festive season, and drive safely, and have a prosperous 2010, and keep reading here and helping us to keep this blog going. thank you for all your input. See you soon. bye for now:
