Conserve that water!

1000 ltr tank with down pipe feed attached

   The drought continues. There has been some rain and the new 1000 litre water container brought by my daughters boy friend has been set up and is about one third full! Very pleased with my Heath Robinson setup!
   In the poly tunnel I have transplanted some savoy type winter cabbage and wait to see how they do. Harvesting continues - tomatoes, carrots, peas, courgettes, potatoes, onions, cucumbers and a melon! Major effort now to get the main crop potatoes up before the is any serious rain and get the onions dried off for storage.
  Nothing going on on the chicken front. No further losses and those that remain are growing. 
   Autumn is getting closer!
