October is disappearing fast and the weather can't make up its mind but the garden is enjoying the odd cooler day but the extremes do play havoc with plants.
You will need to keep a watch on things like lettuce providing a bit of shade on the hot days or they will bolt as well as get brown around the out side edges of the leaves.
This week busy replanting the hanging baskets at a local school which highlights what you need to do re maintenance when you are re potting and replacing clean everything out thoroughly.
Otherwise things are racing along I can't eat the amount of food that I can produce so I think I will start taking the extra to the markets each weekend and give people a chance to taste real fresh food.
