I have a very small garden, at least by the standards of BCUK homesteaders it seems. The productive area of the garden, the bit that gets the most sunlight, is approx 8m x 3m. In this I have a single 4'x16' raised bed, 12 apple trees, 9 blackcurrant bushes, 12 strawberries, half a dozen raspberries, a hazel, an oak, a grape vine, some rhubarb, 2 triffids hops, a christmas tree, and a lot of bind weed.
So far this year I have pruned the fruit trees, and the fruit bushes, weeded the raised bed, sewed beetroot, and generally been tidying up.
I have also taken over the entire living room with plants. Several dozen tomatoes (2 of which are in flower already!), several dozen chilli/sweet pepper plants, some squash plants, and a few others. These I am just waiting for the risk of frost to pass to start moving things outside.
Some of the peppers will be grown indoors, the rest will go outside. During the summer months my living room is a bit like a rainforest.
In the next week I am hoping to get a new pile of poo for the raised bed, then get the spuds in the ground. I'm sure chitting isn't supposed to involve 6"+ shoots...
