In The Garden

I

t’s a good idea to keep a close eye on the weather during April. Frosts are still common, and many plants and flowers may need protection in the form of fleece or cloches.

Hopefully, the ground will not be too wet and so now is a good time to finish off digging over your plot in preparation for all the vegetables you are going to grow.

As the weather gets warmer, the weeds will grow in earnest. Regular weeding, before they become established, is important.

Vegetable Garden To Do’s Start an asparagus bed - Early April is not too late to start an asparagus bed. Make sure the ground is prepared ready for the arrival of the asparagus crowns as you will need to plant them shortly after they arrive.

The crowns must not be allowed to dry out. For this reason, don’t buy them from a

garden centre where they have been kept on a shelf for several weeks.

Earth up first early potatoes and plant out second early and maincrop varieties Protect first early potato shoots against frost by earthing up as they break through the soil. Second earlies and maincrop seed potatoes can now be planted. Chitting the seed potatoes beforehand may improve yields, but is not essential.

Keep on top of weeding - It is much easier to deal with weeds whilst they are small.

Pick them out by hand or use a trowel or hoe. Doing this regularly will mean a weed free plot, and nowhere for pests (especially slugs) to hide.

Put up bean supports - Put in place wigwams or rows of canes ready for your runner and climbing french beans. As the ground is soft, it will be easy to push the canes into the soil.

Sow vegetable seed outdoors - Many seeds won’t germinate until the soil temperature has reached about 7ºC, but if the weather has been warm you can start sowing carrots, broad beans, parsnips, spinach, beetroot, peas, mangetout, lettuce, radish, scorzonera, swiss chard, rocket, runner beans, salsify, sorrel, sprouting broccoli, swede, and turnips.

Sow vegetable seed indoors in trays or pots - Start sowing indoors, or in a greenhouse

PAGE 14 | Please mention ‘The Local Answer Ingleby Barwick’ when calling advertisers

See Page 30 for our Index of Advertisers or coldframe, celeriac, kale, parsley, leeks, brussel sprouts, summer cabbage, cauliflower, lemon grass, comfrey, calabrese, peas, mangetout, squash and pumpkins.

Towards the end of the month start sowing sweetcorn, cucumber, courgette, french and runner beans, ready for planting out mid May. If you have a greenhouse that they can grow in then you are not too late to start chillies.

Plant onion and shallot sets - If you have space, now is the time to plant onion sets.

White onions are relatively cheap in the shops but red onions and shallots are much more expensive, so it’s worth thinking about growing these.

Harden off plants - Seedlings that have been started indoors but are to be grown outside can be hardened off on warm still days. Place them outside during the day, but take them in again late afternoon, and do this for about a week or so. This way they will get used to the cooler conditions before being planted outside.

Protect plants from frost - If a frost has been forecast, protect plants using horticultural fleece or cloches.

Divide herbaceous herbs - Herbaceous herbs, such as chive, oregano, mint and tarragon can be dug up and divided, just before proper growth begins. Divide the root clump, re-plant and water well.

Fruit Garden To Do’s Clean up your strawberry beds or pots Remove any dead or damaged leaves and old runners from the plants. If the plants are getting older, thin out the smaller crowns leaving 3 to 4 crowns per plant. Apply a fresh layer of straw if using as a mulch.

Apply a mulch to soft fruits - All soft fruits, such as strawberries, raspberries, redcurrants, blackcurrants, and gooseberries will benefit from a mulch. Garden compost, leaf mould, organic manure, straw, hay and spent mushroom compost can all be used. Hay is more beneficial than straw as it breaks down more easily and releases more nutrients into the soil.

THE POWER OF WORDS REALLY CAN RESOLVE AWKWARD SITUATIONS!

S

ometimes, even the most difficult situations can be resolved with just a few cleverly chosen and well expressed words. Here are a few wonderful examples...

I recently picked up a hitch-hiker. He seemed like a nice enough bloke but once he was in the car I realised he had terrible body odour and immediately regretted giving him a lift. After a couple of miles he said he was grateful for the lift but asked me if I wasn’t afraid that he might be a serial killer? I told him that the odds of two serial killers being in the same car at the same time was extremely unlikely. Fortunately he jumped out the next time I had to stop!

An elderly man in Queensland had owned a large property for several years. He had a dam in one of the lower paddocks where he had planted mango and avocado trees.

The dam had been fixed up for swimming when it was built and he also had some picnic tables placed there in the shade of the fruit trees. One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the dam to look it over, as he hadn’t been there for a while. He grabbed a 10 litre bucket to bring back some fruit. As he neared the dam, he heard voices shouting and laughing. As he came closer he saw it was four young women skinny-dipping in his dam. He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end.

One of the women shouted to him, ‘We know why you’re here and we’re not coming out until you leave.’ The old man frowned and said,’ Maam, I didn’t come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or try to make you get out of the dam naked.’ Holding the bucket up he said, ‘I’m only here to feed the crocodiles.’ Moral: Old men may walk slowly, but they can still think fast.

A smarty-pants London lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a Glasgow cop. He thinks that he’s smarter than the cop because he is a lawyer from London and is certain that he has a better education then any Jock cop. He

decides to prove this to himself and have some fun at the Glasgow cop’s expense!! Glasgow cop says, “ Licence and registration, please.”

London Lawyer says, “What for?” Glasgow cop says, “Ye didnae come to a complete stop at the stop sign.” London Lawyer says, “I slowed down, and no one was coming.”Glasgow cop says, “Ye still didnae come to a complete stop. Licence and registration, please.”London Lawyer says, “What’s the difference?” Glasgow cop says, “The difference is, ye haff tae come to a complete stop, that’s the law, Licence and registration, please!”

London Lawyer says, “If you can show me the legal difference between slow down and stop, I’ll give you my licence and registration and you give me the ticket. If not, you let me go and don’t give me the ticket.” Glasgow cop says, “Sounds fair. Exit your vehicle, sir.”

The London Lawyer exits his vehicle. The Glasgow cop takes out his baton and starts beating the living daylights out of the lawyer and then says, “Dae ye want me to stop, or just slow doon?”

One evening, after the honeymoon, Tom was working on his motorcycle in the garage.

His new wife was standing there by the bench watching him. After a long period of silence she finally said, “Honey, I’ve just been thinking, now that we are married, maybe it’s time you quit spending so much of your time out here in your garage. You probably should also consider selling your Harley and all your welding equipment along with your gun collection, your fishing gear, the boat and all those stupid model airplanes, plus dump that vintage hot rod sports car and your home brewing equipment.” Tom got a horrified look on his face. She said, “Darling, what’s wrong?”He replied, “There for a minute, you were starting to sound like my ex-wife!” “Exwife!?” she screamed, “YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU WERE MARRIED BEFORE!” Tom replied, “I wasn’t.”

The right words really can be so important!

Recipe

BANOFFEE PIE INGREDIENTS 1 tin Carnation Condensed Milk 9 oz (225g) / 10-12 McVities Digestive Biscuits. Alternatively use Hob Nobs 3 oz (75g) butter 3-4 Bananas Double / whipping cream (1 medium carton) Cocoa powder or Chocolate for topping

METHOD Grease an 8 inch (20 cm) round loosebased cake tin (the pie will be pushed up through the tin).

Without opening the contents, place the tin of condensed milk in a pan of water and bring to the boil, leaving to simmer for 1 hour and 45 mins.

Alternatively, buy ready boiled Carnation Toffee in a tin, warm per instructions, and pour over base.

Meanwhile make the banoffee pie biscuit base: Melt the butter in a pan on a very low heat to allow time to crush the biscuits.

Break and crush the biscuits and place in a mixing bowl.

Add the melted butter to the biscuits and stir thoroughly (biscuit appears quite dry but this will set hard – see next step) Press the biscuit mix into the cake tin starting from the centre and working to the edge so that it’s flat in the middle but rises (ramps) up to the edges, approximately 3cm high (this will form a slight bowl or hollow shape to stop the melted condensed milk from touching the edges).

Place biscuit base in the fridge for about an hour to set.

Make the cream topping: Whisk the cream until thick.

Half of the bananas can be chopped

See Page 30 for our Index of Advertisers

and added to the mix at this stage.

However, as the remaining bananas are to be added at the end, the bananas can be added to the cream just before it is added to the cake.

Making the pie: After an hour and 45 minutes, carefully remove the cooked condensed milk tin from the simmering pan, and without opening, leave to one side for about 5 minutes.

Carefully open the tin and pour the contents onto the biscuit base, spreading evenly.

Boil Carnation Condensed Milk to make the toffee. Leave to chill for an hour in the fridge (or if short of time, 30 minutes in the freezer).

If not already done (earlier), chop half the bananas and add to the cream.

Spread the cream over the chilled pie.

Mix half of the bananas into the cream and spread over chilled toffee. Chop the remaining bananas and place decoratively on top.

Finally, decorate by sprinkling either cocoa powder, crushed cadburys flake, or shaved chocolate.

Enjoy!
