Twiams, if you have the size, you can get spare plastic covers, just google mini greenhouse covers

Also, I find Wilkinsons very fair. The quality for the price is quite good.
Twiams I have grown parsley from the growing herbs in the supermarket. It really does work and yours now seems to be a little late.

Well it's a shame as all gardening and shopping is currently put on hold ! Having a bit of a time here so seems my garden will have to survive without me for a little bit ! Mums managed to rupture her achilles tendon, so basically she's in plaster and i'm looking after her for a while, which isn't very fun haha, maybe when she's napping i'll sneak out and look after my garden, but money is a little tight as she's self employed, no work no money, the joys !

I really like wilkos, i'm often in there snooping round the pet isle, never thought to look in the gardening section, they're prices are always very good, for everything ! I may try going to tesco and picking up some potted parsley, i was really looking forward to the piggies trying it as it got quite big but obviously the slugs enjoyed it,

Just to keep you updated and because i feel i haven't added to my little gardening blog in a while... My smaller of the two tomato plants has his little tomato and i've moved him inside to get better benefit from the sun coming through the window in the kitchen. and a view of my garden looking sorry for itself in the rain As you can see my garden needs alot of work before it looks anything special ;D

Sorry to hear about your Mum ....hope she's better soon....of course she has a good nurse to look after her......the garden will have to wait When Mum is better and back on her feet....you can then concentrate on your garden;....of course there's no reason why you can't make plans and plot them out on paper, for when you are ready to get going....

You have youth on your side. A little bit at a time and it will get done. It is sheltered which is in your favour. You could make that really pretty Twiams.
That tomato is quite big.

Luckily mums managed to have her scan brought forward after getting slightly emotional on the phone, which i guess is a bonus, should find out what exactly is going on as it's an ultra sound scan, fingers crossed ! I've been thinking about maybe changing the little triangles of gravel to little triangles of planted flowers instead, but it's just wether the cats will go and mess it up ! although my cats just come out of an operation so is house bound ;D Definitely got lots of ideas it's just doing them !

I don't feel very youth'ful i feel pretty groggy and tired if im honest ! :') I'm hoping any effort i put in will pay off unlike my veggies i repotted outside which have now been eaten, i'm very annoyed I'm proud of that little tomato hence why i'm making it stay inside away from harm !
