After a stormy week and a rainy weekend we finally got a nice sunny day yesterday. It was even cool enough to sleep comfortably. This morning has been fine too, so I grabbed 15 minutes to spray what was left if the vege patch with Dipel for caterpillars. It was too late for the parsley and capsicums but it might do the cucumbers and tomatoes some good.

Spring gardening

This is the time of year it makes you think gardening in Brisbane is possible. On Saturday I put in the vege patch. Tomatoes, basil, capsicum, cucumbers and parsley. I know basil loves the climate here, tomatoes do okay as long as it doesn’t get too stormy for and they get waterlogged. The others are more experimental.
This year, I have covered the whole lot in a 5 foot high tent arrangement of netting right down to the ground. Hopefully this will keep the possums from eating everything in sight. Today is Wednesday and so far so good.
Fingers crossed!
