Thats it I am Banned
Well today I have once again spent too much money in the big kids toy shop Bunnings. This time I went with the intention of purchasing 1000 more worms for the farm, however over $90 later I walked out with:
- 500 Worms, unfortunately the 1000 packs were out of stock, as such I have settled for an additional 500. These cost less that 30% of the shop.
- Some Basil seedlings. It was one herb we did not have in the garden as no one seems to use it. That said I have picked some up for use as a natural mosquitoes and fly repellent. Two things in abundance in our area.
- 8 x Bean seedlings that my Mum is keen to plant and grow.
- 2 x Downpipe trellis that the beans will have to climb. They will be laid out back to back.
- 6 x Carrot seedlings. The variety grows in little round balls, so should be an experiment worth undertaking.
- 3 x Rich Gro Pro Mix that I love so much.
- 1 x Storage Tub to be converted to a planter like the original two.
So as a result of this visit I am banning myself from the big kids toy shop until the second week of the new year.
On the good news front the Beefsteak Tomato has fruit. 2 little ones in fact. They should be good for picking soon and I hope this is only the start of the crop. The mysterious chilli is also producing strong fruit. They are long, slender and green. They look like real rockets. I am still yet to attempt the ebony fires that I harvested last week, though I may do so now.
