A few things...

Not much action in the garden this week. Snow peas have finally started fruiting after being sown in May...is that normal? Lets say it is. The seeds I sowed in my experimental greehouse have been a monumental failure, with only the pak choi sprouting. So I re-sowed the lettuce with a new packet, to rule out the possibility that the seeds were bad. See how they go. Also put some beans straight into the garden bed, and gave them a soaking. More finger crossing needed.

Got some bits and pieces from a large outdoorsy store, and now have a pipe that runs into the backyard, that can be redirected from the greehouse. The pipe doesn't go anywhere yet, but i'll hook that up once the garden beds look settled. More sheep poo needed!!!

Update: Put some capsicum, tomato and beets in seed trays, and stole some soil from pots to plant some cucumber and zuchini seeds.
