Had a good day on the allotment today, managed to get the rest of the potatoes in, that means that the whole of plot 3 is planted up with potatoes. I then tackled the raised bed and spent over an hour picking out weeds which had begun to take over, it is amazing at how quickly they start to come. You will see from the photographs in the next post the different a little time made.
I also took the opportunity to thin out the carrots, beetroot and parsnip and then planted another row of carrots and parsnips. I would have liked to get another row of beetroot in but I ran out of time.
I also got my beans planted, french beans and runner beans and replanted the row of dwarf french beans that had not come.
In the cloche I picked some radish which went nicely in a salad with our fist BBQ of the season, planted a row of Chinese radish and replanted the lettuce as they had not done anything.
Have a look at the video to see the progress.
