13th October – second cut of grass

The grass is growing rapidly in our paddock. The shock of the first cut last week was not enough to slow it down. J and I took about 3 hours to tidy it up…much easier. We are looking forward to the dry season after Christmas when growth slows down!

I planted some tomatoes and R planted some corn in the vegetable patch. The tomatoes are just planted out in the garden and hopefully it is warm enough at night for them to survive.

As I dug the vegetable patch, I found small peach trees growing from seed so we possibly have at least one peach tree alongside the vegetables. We also have lemons and limes growing alongside the vegetable patch. There is another citrus tree which may be oranges.

It was 29 degrees in Hastings & Napier today…. Nearly too hot to be gardening!!!!
