24th March 2008.

I share an allotment with Gordon and its starting to be an adventure. We have a huge plot between us and this year we have 14 raised beds and a patch that we have left for the potatoes, 2 sheds and 2 greenhouses, lots of fruit bushes and trees!
Been up today.....not much to do at all really, so came home and started sowing seeds. My peas are coming through nice. Just waiting for the weather to change so we can use our new rotovator and get our spuds planted!

With problems at home and being very busy I have not had much opportunity to get online. I have been managing the plot on my own recently as Gordon was very unwell, he is now getting better and is slowly doing some weeding!

Blight on all spuds nothing really to shout home about this year. Some cracking courgettes and pumpkins! Onions have done well, along with tomatoes and cucumbers, nothing happening with the egg plant yet. Brassicas are fantastic and had the best crop of cauliflowers this year! Whoooo hooo. Swede was excellent,. although something was eating it.

Created 3 huge beds and starting to weed again and sort out for the winter. Patiently awaiting for my xmas seed spuds to arrive.......
