Organic Onions, Nearly!

August 26th, 2009 | Posted by admin in The Virgin Gardener

So after the slug fiasco I forgot to tell you that the red onions finally appeared the other day.
I was getting worried that they had died, or that I had planted the bulbs in the wrong way and that they were making their way to Australia. But, that wasn’t the case, and like a mad woman I ran out into the garden in the pitch black in my dressing gown, armed with a camera.

Onion by night

I call this photos… ‘Onion by Night”. Possibly art?
In other news, and more recent news, everything is growing like mad at the moment. I am wondering however if we are ever going to be able to eat any of these things before Christmas! Disappointingly we only seem to be having one out of the two pepper plants actually growing anything at the moment, but in contrast the strawberries, tomatoes and the broccoli are doing really well.
Looks more like broccoli!Nearly enough for Wimbledon?Ripen pleeease
Random!Oh and finally I also have to report that the random experiment is looking, well pretty random. We have had people saying that we may get potatoes off of it, and some have said we won’t – only time will tell!
