HI Y'All
Wonderful day here, sunny just a little chilly, no wind. So.....threw some manure into dug trenches for beans later on....planted shallots and onions. Dug Parsnips and Leeks, a fine crop even though my Parsnips do look like Davy Jones (Bill Nighy) in Pirates of the Caribbean! Dug over small plot for some Lady Cristl earlies later this week. Threw in a row of radishes and rocket. Cloche covered some soil for warming up for pea planting.
Checked over all my houseplants in the Conservatory, and started off some more Sweet Peas I found lurking in a packet.
Bliss.
Regards

me and my 2 year old moved the manure that i had been storing in the garden, sowed some grass seeds and sorted out a load of compost which has got to go down the allotment with all the manure this weekend.
we're moving next month to a place with no garden :'( so everything has to come down the lotty with me before we move.

I was at the lottie really early yesterday, it was so lovely, all frosty! Only a surface frost though, the soil was fine in a hour as the sun melted the frost away as I watched, wish I had my camera! Luckily my manure pile was covered and unfrozen, so I was able to dig it out and top up my potato beds that are now covered up ready to plant up in a few weeks. Pricked out my banana shallots and onions grown from seed into their final big modules, they are now in the cold greenhouse. Have a lot of sowing to do this week!

If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

The wind was to cold for me ,so spent a lovely long time in a cosy warm greenhouse .Potted on my tomato seedlings,sowed peppers,sprouts, sunflowers,stocks,watered my Epies and with slightly warmed rainwater that I have in a basin below the benches and stood gazing lovingly at my geranium cuttings whilst listening to classic fm on my little yellow radio . Ah ! Life is good ! Debbie :)

After finishing work I picked up my slabs from Focus plus roofing felt, straight to the lotty and got stuck in with the job in hand which was joining two 6'x4' sheds together, an hour and a half later I had the slabs laid plus the shed floor and the three sides up, manana is the roof and felting, the lotty is still a paddy field so I'm just glad that my cold frame is a god send, :)

Did some tidying up. Decided to remove all the Maxim strawberry plants I had underplanted my fruit tree cordons with, as the couch grass had wormed its way back into that spot and it was looking a real mess. So, I carefully forked them all out and replanted them on the plot next door where thay will hopefully be a bit happier! I plan to mulch the trees with the last bit of my old manure pile tomorrow.
Also pruned the blackcurrant and redcurrant bushes ...yes I know it's a bit late, but it was really just for making the path a bit clearer as they had grown so much!
