Welcome.

On 6th April 2007 a very small piece of lawn was dug up, and a raised bed was made. It was sown with a few rows of vegetables. Late in 2009 we gained an half an allotment (plot 54B). What happens next??

Garlic doing well.

I was expecting a bit more evidence of growth today than I found. The garlic is doing very well, and the first lettuce row is showing, so are lots of new weeds: not much else.

I have given up on the autumn sown onions, they've all disappeared or are rotten. As they were in the wrong place anyway, I've removed them, and sown a short row of Balmoral peas instead. I've sown a short row of Jaguar peas, some more lettuce, and leaf salad.

After some more tidying up I started cleaning up bed 10 in front of the shed. I need to lower it by about 12 inches as well. As expected it's full of bindweed roots and some horse radish.

At least the clocks have changed, so a little bit of evening work will be possible from now on

When I'm not alloting, I enjoy taking photos from kites. Here is one from a contact in Cambridgeshire, taken today.
