The early peppers are coming on very nicely, no extra heat and mainly natural sunlight now, except on cloudy days #digforvictory #selfsufficient #backyardgarden #kitchengarden #allotment #allotmentlife #peppers
Rapidly clearing winter crops now to make way for spring crops, such a short window of opportunity before they need clearing for the summer crops! It’s all go in February!! #Digforvictory #selfsufficient #backyardgarden #kitchengarden #allotment #allotmentlife
