How does your garden grow?!
Discussion
Right well I have just put a batch in the oven to semi dry them. Never done this before, but they are in at about 90 degrees. I've read to leave them for anywhere between 2 hours at 200 degrees (surely that would just cook them?!) and upto 12 hours at 100 degrees. I'll see what happens and report back.
Think I am also going to bottle some this afternoon.

I am trying to make the most of the space by doing a vertical plot. The onions are on the lower level, the sweetcorn on the upper, neither steals too much light from the other and it is easy to weed.

Oven dried tomatoes:
Nice ripes tomatoes, laid out on a baking tray and salted. Put in an oven at about 90 degrees for around 6 - 7 hours. Add some olive oil and garlic. Not tried them yet but they look good. Also spent the afternoon making and bottling tomato sauce for pasta in the future. Used about half the tomatoes, made 7 x 450ml bottles. My kitchen was destroyed in the process.
