This afternoon ,in a bright spell between heavy showers, I took some photos of my completely planted up plot and also some more pics and panoramas of the site in general which show quite a contrast from the November beginnings.
|
top half of plot well established |
|
planting and sowing of bottom half now complete |
|
mixed lettuce is doing well |
|
bare patches in chard bed now resown |
|
a bit of the Mezcla leaf glut |
|
later sowing of broad beans and lettuce coming on |
|
dwarf beans have germinated in 6 days |
|
soil warm to the touch when thinning and transplanting parsnips |
Views from along the bottom of the plots show a lot of greenery instead of bare soil.

Wow, that's quite a good size area you have and lots of growth already.
Thanks for visiting and making a comment on my blog. Seems that your site has been invaded by darleks.
Yes Sue,
there seem to be a lot. But don't you think that they ,the blue tubs and water pipe netting supports make our new site look like a proper allotment!
It certainly looks like a proper allotment Shinny - all that it's missing are the rows of sheds and greenhouses :)
Looking good all round, lets hope the weather improves to help things along.
