We love to grow lettuce, especially ones that we can just pick at as we go past. This year we have been caught on the hop so not one edible plant is in the garden except for the fruit trees (where has the year gone!!). Have a wonderful weekend and keep up with the slug control :-) xxsweetbriardreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03036932595395191529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542147042521831239.post-25044053946710442352015-06-13T02:09:47.649-07:002015-06-13T02:09:47.649-07:00Your veggies are doing great they all look healthy...Your veggies are doing great they all look healthy, I have so many slugs and snails in my garden they ruin everything, I have tried egg shells they do help a little but the blighters still get through. the weather here has turned cold again so I'm in my winter woolies too.

I picked some out to make an online Shutterfly book. So I've got to get off computer before my eyes go any more whackier! Spent too much time but it's quiet in the house so that's the best time to do it!
