What fantastic weather this week :) me and callum have been to the allotment every day this week :) i have taken some more pics so ill post them now and just write a bit about what we have been up to :)
this is one of the blue tubs i have near my shed finally managed to fill it up and get some carrots planted
in a few weeks ill do the other one
Here you can see my first early new potatoes are really coming through now im still earthing up and clearing weeds just have to be extra careful incase a frost comes but i have lots of fleece on standby
These are my second earlies love the purple colour again been earthing up and weeding
the onions are really loving the weather they are really growing now been weeding around them this week
i lifted up the wire (which is soon coming off ) to take this pic of my parsnips i thinned them out this week and in that row i have 27 coming along nicely
beetroot have come through they didnt take long just need to thin them out now had a very good weed around the parsnips and beetroot
look close on the peas and you can see the half circle nibbles on my peas classic sign of pea and bean weevil i spotted the damn things for myself apparently they should be ok i need to get the supports in now and remove that wire replace with netting
these are my bare rooted strawberries they are just starting to flower
one last pic of the potatoes hopefully ill get down there this weekend too as fast as im clearing the weeds they are coming back
