A Raspberry Pi and some Chickens
So I’m going to try packing them in this year.
The plan is 24 tomato plants, (with some not inconsiderate assistance, I’ve been mapping out the area).

Nothing of much interest to report.
I was just experimenting with the camera on a new phone.
It doesn’t seem too bad imho.
I now know to turn off the phones wifi whilst I’m in range of it.
Accidentally taking a few pictures in (burst mode) fills up my dropbox in a matter of seconds as the phones burst mode takes 100+ pics at a time.

It will be interesting to see if they germinate before the ones that are in pots in the poly tunnel:
