Hi Peeps
We have been a little quiet of late due to Mr G being part of a Record Breaking attempt Paramotmotoring across Australia
Check out his Instagram to follow his antics.
He will be back in time for Spring 🌻🌷

Check this EPIC post our from part of the paramotoring across Aus crew:

'Before I started on this trip, I had hip surgery 8 weeks prior. I was hesitant but my wife knew it would be the best thing for me.

I had waited two years for hip surgery. I resigned from my work due to this and waited. Waiting and waiting was horrible. I felt alone and felt I lost my worth...my manhood.

I know that all of us feel like this at times.

This trip so far has pushed me to work this body of mine. I was scared to do this but I'm glad I did. I'm glad my wife pushed me. I've realised that I am still me but with a new hip and look on life.

is an amazing cause to support all men, in any walks if life.

So, when life get you down, and just go for it.

HINTS - WINTER GARDENING JOBS

Feed citrus in late July, using an all-purpose citrus fertiliser.
Keep sowing carrots, spring onions, leeks, broad beans, radishes, English spinach and peas.
If you haven't planted asparagus and rhubarb crowns yet, don't delay. Strawberries can also go in now.
Start seeds of tomatoes, eggplant and capsicum on a warm windowsill, ready for planting when the soil warms.

VEGETABLES TO GROW IN WINTER

Carrots: Grown all year round, carrots can withstand a large variety of temperatures. However, these veggies go great in those winter broths and soups. To ensure you get the best out of your carrots make sure that your soil doesn't dry out, water regularly and keep the soil moist for the first two weeks of germination.

Broccoli: Broccoli loves to grow in a nice sunny spot, so make sure you position your growing produce where they will receive some rays of sunshine. Remember to give your veggies a good drink of water and keep the soil most.

Garlic: A great tip for growing garlic is to not water your soil until your cloves have germinated, which will occur approximately two weeks after planting. Following this, ensure you water the soil often enough so that it remains moist but not wet.

Spinach: Don't forget to water your growing spinach regularly and feed once seedlings begin to emerge with a plant food and soil improver that feeds your crops above and below the ground by creating a balanced and sustainable growing environment for bigger, healthier crops. Depending on the type of spinach variety you're growing, it should be ready to enjoy in six to eight weeks.
