Having got the new plot roughly dug over and getting impatient, I needed to plant something. Broad beans, I don't even like them much! but it is nice to see some sticks at the end of the rows to show something is waiting to pop up. I did come across some purple sprouting and spring cabbage at a garden centre £3.99 for 9 plants, yes your read it right £3.99. Who buys these things? I do but after they had been reduced to 50p. I know it ain't really the right time but they have two chances. Now I need to break up a few lumps and get a smooth tilth for the onions, shallots and garlic which are nagging me to be planted. Chatting to one of the other plotholders she kindly gave me a sweet dumpling squash which I shall save the seeds, it was roasted up last night to try and I quite like it. Also a crystal lemon cucumber, the jury is still out on that one as I am not sure it is something I would grow next year. I think I prefer those prickly nobbly ridge type ones.
