Potos





At the allotment

Planted Red Cabbages and Kale at the allotment - fleeced over them, Salad, rocket etc. at home, and put cloches over the top.

Broad beans were eaten, allegedly by a fox, so we ended up getting some dirt cheap plugplants from the market and banging them in, also under cloches.

Digging ongoing, with most of the beds done, and a lot of the new space done. We re-weedkillered the squash beds, although the first dose now does seem to be working.

Chili seeds doing ok but not great, Cucumber, Tomato much more progress, leeks good, forst of the squash up today.

Yesterday sowed Courgettes and Squash in pots at home, plus some Calabrese. 2 trays of Leeks in now.

Tomatoes, Cucumbers starting to come up, Chillis doing ok, as are the Aubergines.

Picking PSB, picked the lone Romanesco. Ate it. Meh.

Potatoes Plantificatorized

Chillis look like they're germinating now that we moved them upstairs:

The bigger of the Asparagus crowns have got off to an amazing running start:
This was supposed to arrive in October, better late than never, I guess, although it's also about the size od a cricket ball, so work to be done, if you ask me.
