Not a clue tbh

The back garden is now “finished” for 2025, with all of our planned veg now planted, this is until I buy some more !!

What can’t be seen is the bed with the tomatoes and peppers in, which has a cover on front greenhouse effect, high hopes for this after last years disappointment from a simple grow bag that I think lacked the required depth for any decent growth.

You old.

Are you saying my home veg patch goes with my National Trust membership and categorises me as old?

Or is that just the bald patch :rofl:

It’s the fact your gardening is knowledgeable & organised & you know what you are doing whilst the rest of us are still accidentally spraying ourselves in the face with weedkilliler or have a collection of old pallets that we are intending to use to build a shed or maybe bedding plots but are likely just going to end up as part of a bonfire.

30s is about wanting a shed & garden
40s is having all the gear but no idea
50s is where you are an honorary member of Gardeners question time on R4 :grin::wink:

Did someone say shed?

Build in progress. Roof felt & flooring to do, & the odds & ends +


roof edge trimmings.

We usually have cars supported on bricks around here :grimacing:

It’s yer engineering bricks, innit - keeps the wooden bearers off the concrete to stay dry & hopefully allows air to circulate underneath too. Had some spare plastic sheeting to cut up & put on top of the bricks as a substitute DPC. It’s not going to be a shed with me spending lots of time it, so didn’t bother with adding a “base floor” of OSB with insulation between the floor planks.
