So i picked my first strawberry and ate it .... meh, it didnt taste that good..... i hope that as the plant grows they get better in size and flavour. There are other strawberries growing so cross fingers.
And i have put crushed up egg shells around a couple of my plants, like the bean plant and one of the spinach and rocket pots, apparently it keeps the slugs and snails off coz walking on egg shells is like walking on glass. So hopefully it keeps them off, coz they ate every single thing on the bean plant. No leaves or anything left. My son was so mad at them. Haha .. Poor thing .. He feels like its taking forever for it to grow coz the slugs and snails keep eating it so hopefully the egg shells help.
Oh i have also made a compost bin out of one of those rolly bins ... i just tipped it upside down and cut a hole in the bottom ... then i drilled large holes in it and put horse manure and scraps and chicken manure and whatever else i could in it. Hopefully that goes good. Havent got a clue what im doing but i have read a few things and seen a few vids so hopefully it workd well .. lol. Once again, cross fingers.
