Allotments 4 All

 Just watered the seedlings in the greenhouse, looking through the forum on here then of to bed to get some shuteye ready for  bl**dy night shift tonight, at least it's my last one for this week.
Have a good day everyone.

Sleep well Richard. :)
Finished my digging now, sweet pea support in place and plastic netting secured over arch for yard long beans. Didn't get many last year so I will try again. All soft fruit bushes pruned and weeded and strawbs weeded too. Just got to tidy up around my shed and neaten the edges and get some sand to dig in for carrots etc. Funny how there are always a million other things to do when you think the end is in sight ::) ;D

planted afew early pots and then spent the rest of my time digging up loads of broken glass which the former keeper must have had fun hideing it under the soil

potted up some thyme seedlings into bigger pots, also potted up a black current and a red current i got Tuesday in the poundshop and at wilkos. when I'm done catching up on A4A I'll being going downstairs to sow some basil, nasturtium, aquilegia, red and white onion seeds.

Nothing... but that's it for the decorating... if she wants anymore doing, she mun' want...
;D

transplanted 168 necromesia seedlings into plug plants, watered everything that needed it in the greenhouse, showed the disabled group around and came home to transplant tomatoes  ;D

Planted out my special aquelegia that I grew from seed last year(hope they turn out as nice as the ones someone put on here last year. Put some over-wintered old fashioned sweet peas all along the wire fencing at the front of the plot. Put some bark down at the top where we sit for a cuppa. Put me Terry Cotter pot man back on his bench ready for the nice weather.Hope to be there again tomorrow cos it's gonna rain here on Saturday(get some pricking out done). Almost forgot. Tony found me a lovely root of nettles so I have me own nettle bed now

Weeded and mulched my soft fruit area, weeded and forked over the bean trench (lots of worms - great!), dug up some brambles, planted a few more onions. Made a bonfire. Had lots of chats with fellow allotmenteers - lots of activity down at the site today.

Mowed and edged the paths on the plot and decided to put boards around the sitting area. Don't sound much but took me all bluddy day

transplanted more sweet peas, marigolds, lobelia and geraniums, Ray planted spuds (under covers) , I sowed turnips, kohl rabi, green and purple and we put our feltham first peas out under a chicken wire tunnel to keep the **** pigeons off  ;D

pricked out teasel seedlings, resowed cabbage seeds and potted some Vietnamese coriander cuttings that were sent to me from hellohelenhere thanks again :-*

Potted on some toms, aubergines and artichokes. Sowed some more onions. Cut back some shrubs and shredded some of the thinner bits to go in the compost.

Yesterday repotted house plants in fresh soil.
Today planted Setton, Red Baron, Hercules and Stuttgarter onion sets.
Weeded the redcurrant and blackcurrant boarder and the strawberry bed.
Bring on the Radox  ;D

Didn't actually do anything in the garden but did go shopping for some garden items, if that counts.   Bought 2 x 3 kgs of seed potatoes (can't remember the two varieties) from Wilkos, also some more seedling cells.   Wanted some more potato gro-bags but couldn't get them anywhere so bought a roll of small, heavy-duty garden rubbish sacks.   Will see if they do the trick instead.   Looking at the size of them I might get three tubers per bag, compared to the one I normally plant in the potato gro-bags.

Made a good start.. watered all the greenhouses. The Parsely, 4 trays, is all through. A couple of Dahlias have started sprouting. Moved some pots around.
