Just over a month and our spinach has gone from seed to harvest and I must say after a sneaky sample, these little leaves really pack a punch in flavor.

Halfway through this short week and we are in love with the rich colour of these leaves. Prefect for brightening up any dish or day.

A little experiment by our head grower Jack. A tray of cement over seeds to simulate the weight and pressure soil would provide if the seed was buried. Seems to be working so far. We,ll keep you posted on this innovation.

We have been using Jacks technique of a tray of cement over seeds for a little while now and I must say it works fairly well. We are getting sturdier seedlings as a result.

We would like to wish all our followers and supporters a happy new year. It’s all go here again at Ballybeg Greens. Getting ready for what we can only hope will be a great growing year for us. Sure why not start the year with sowing a new mix salad crop.

Just a weekend in and our seeds are already starting to sprout. Our heat benches are keeping them warm throughout the cold weather.

Getting ready for the growing season ahead of us with Jack starting a new salad crop in one of our seven poly tunnels and planting over two thousand garlic cloves. We have plenty of company too with the frogs getting a spring in their step.

We know that the weather has been very odd the past few weeks. However, our new salad crop is sprouting up very well. Also we have transplanted our garlic into a prepared tunnel and has gotten used to its new home very fast.

It really feels like the first of May here with the great weather. The gardens are literally buzzing with activity. We are sure these bee's will do their job and we will have plenty of apples in the Autumn.
