My poor back comes out in sympathy.

I've fixed your photo to be visible.

We tried the thornless blackberry. The fruit was a little larger than others but we were not impressed  by the taste. On the plus side, there were not as many scratches and impalations (if thats a word)

I had a few berries on the Oregon last year, shortly after it was planted, and I can't say I was impressed with the taste. The one the birds "planted" is much nicer. I bought it because it was thornless but I don't think it's going to be a success. I'll dig in some manure round it and see if that helps to get it going.

Just planted the ruby variety of Swiss Chard.

Looks as though it's a very hardy plant. I've seen it growing and it looks spectacular.

Just brought my chitting potatoes indoors from the cold shed and put them on the window sill of an unheated room upstairs. Hope they'll think about growing roots now.

I noticed the first shoots of the season in the vegetable garden today. Think they might be garlic.

Nice to see a few green shoots Penny. Everything is trying hard in the perennial borders, but the nights are still chilly, cool breeze today as well.

Have at last got the greenhouses sorted out since my return, everything is growing 'great-guns' in there, if it doesn't rain might do some weeding in the borders this afternoon,  Gardening and  Mowing The Lawn have a good week end

Hope you get your weeding done, Kath. It was drizzling when I got up at 7 a.m. but the sun is shining brightly, with a breeze. I'm itching to get my beans and other seedlings into the garden but am waiting a little longer.

Your greenhouse sounds very productive. I saw some little rosemary plants at a garden centre in Bath yesterday that would be good bonsai starters, and wish I'd got one, now. Next time!

I have managed to grow tomatoes in grow bags, although I've not been good . I shall try to keep them well-watered and feed them once they are in flower .. of compost so they don't need watering excessively, although grow bags will ... Will be interesting to see how your plants fair with your different methods.
