Took the fleece off the second sowings of beans & peas (
meteor,
borlotto & broadies
longpod). Weeded a bit and provided twiggy sticks for the peas and canes & string supports for the beans. Something has munched the peas under the fleece so I left the fleece off to let the birds get the slugs. Sowed mystery peas (from a friend) in the remaining space reserved for them & french beans in a handy gap next to the maincrop tatties.
Planted marigolds and poached-egg plants randomly around and amongst the beans & peas.
Potted on basil
dark opal, pricked out cauli
grafitti (2nd sowing - the first lot are waiting to be potted on).
Noticed a volunteer potato plant that is beginning to flower
how on earth did I miss uprooting that! Might as well let it live for another couple of weeks then see what it produces. From where it is, it could be
desiree.
