Allotments 4 All

Planted 5kg of Rocket.

Planted 4th and last line of Rockets.  ;D ;D ;D

Watered the greenhouses and changed the mouse traps before going to work...  :)

Sowed more seed and moved some plants into their final locations.
Planted up two rows of spuds for summer salads hopefully.
watered the ground as it has dried out a bit round the fruit trees.
Looked over what is to come and what has been.
Snow drops will need splitting soon as the last of the flowers are beginning to fade.
Seen the first Catkin on my Hazels. Hope to see more in the coming years.
Cannot seem to get rid of the dock plants that the bird droppings are bringing in.
Mixed up some more compost, perlite, and sand for potting on.

Erected canes ready for Scarlet Emperor runner beans, brittle wax beans and sweet peas, left the plot at 8pm in daylight  :)

Watered the greenhouses before going off to work. Planted two rows of spuds and dug some leeks this evening...  :)

I excavated a 1m x 2m trench in front of my shed for my decking under the new pergola. 15 barrowloads of soil and 5 of rubble. Back says aargh!! :o :o :o Put weed fabric in place and levelled pallet bases. Bought and delivered decking stuff to the plot. Plus lots more little insignificant things. Decided that doors and windows will be painted claret. (contrast with forgetmenot blue). Chatted lots to nice folk. Had my plot admired by 3 folk!!! 8) 8) 8)

After my lunch break (I work from home) I sneaked up the garden and planted out 50 pea plants that I had sown in paper plant pots 3 weeks ago. Covered with bubble wrap to keep the local pigeons at bay!

this morning, planted out the remainder of my spuds, and gave the asparagus bed a feed of seaweed.

Planted out two lines of Kestrel, just the Cara to go.   ;D ;D ;D

Finally finished our paths!  Put up the wigwams and planted sweet peas, sowed more broad beans and planted the last few potatoes, and prepared the asparagus bed.  Had a lovely bath!

             Finally got on to the lotty, broad beans(plants) have gone in plus 'Nadine' spuds , tomorrow it is  onions and broad bean seeds, bloody  love it, :) ;D

Watered and took pictures (see my gallery) of my tiny garden.

Sowed carrots, beetroot, turnips and tidied up a bit (and chatted a lot)
