Haven't tried the potato growing in bags.<br /><br />I went for a drive to St Erth (Digger's) last week and picked up some seeds..it was a good motivater.

My silverbeet has been going well too and it looks like I'll have some broccoli soon and hopefully some broad beans too.<br /><br />I've had a very busy weekend in the garden so far and hope to get more done tomorrow if the rain stays away for at least part of the day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-42481987326517538922011-08-06T07:26:46.999+09:302011-08-06T07:26:46.999+09:30Hallo!

My beans also got burnt when we had a frost a few weeks ago ... a shame, as they had been providing plenty of food.<br /><br />I have one smaller raised garden bed that is dedicated to the purple potatoes I grow. I also grow kumara in this garden, and any space gets whatever 'extra' seedlings I have needing a home. I used to grow potatoes in bags and it's a great idea. <br /><br />Good luck with getting your garden organised for the new season!Dragon (Karen)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03836941136990832257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-71465108316734319292011-08-05T23:29:33.184+09:302011-08-05T23:29:33.184+09:30Hi Tania, I haven't been here for a while.

I have a few shrubs that need a heavy prune as the frost has killed off parts of them. I am putting this off as I don't want any new shots from the cuts until the heavy frost has past. I also have a bed that needs digging up as it is looking rather glum. <br /><br />Otherwise I am wondering if I will get everything done that I need/want to do.Finding Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09882774610725490491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-79802088621828860352011-08-05T17:02:41.778+09:302011-08-05T17:02:41.778+09:30Wow I love seeing other people's gardens!

Mine subscribes to the 'cover it all with mulch and no one will notice' philosophy!<br /><br />Thanks for the garden diary link - I'm just getting myself organised for spring planting too and am hoping to be a bit more organised this year and actually take some notes/ make some records (here's hoping).<br /><br />I grow potatoes in piles of grass clippings. I think I read it in a Jackie French book. Anyway I gave it a go and it works a treat - I got so many spuds this year I am telling everyone!<br /><br />Great blog :)Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13792332012026719246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-28476027322674333482011-08-05T14:16:37.766+09:302011-08-05T14:16:37.766+09:30your raised beds look great,I know what you mean a...your raised beds look great,I know what you mean about sandy soil(my problems is clay),I've had spring sowing on my mind also I just planted out some seeds yesterday and todaymashellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16154607774091999241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-79255103191928407552011-08-05T11:18:04.485+09:302011-08-05T11:18:04.485+09:30Hi Ourgangof7,
