Saturday 21st May

Made it to the allotment again and spent over 3 hours there :)

planted some more runner bean plants that were desperate to be moved ,took down some sunflowers callum planted and put them in front of the shed and gave around the shed a good weed it needed it!!

Took lots of seeds down today dwarf french beans 3 different varieties of lettuce,spring onions and some radishes i dont really like growing things from seeds down there but thought  i'd give it a go see what happens i already have lettuce at home so nothing lost if it doesn't work

Sorted out the netting for the strawberries and saw a nice red one ready so i shared it with callum my first thing ready :)

still lots to take down more broccoli ,cabbage,cauliflower,leeks and swede when they are a bit bigger and runner beans and a pumpkin also thinking of trying sweetcorn I've seen lots of people growing them and i have a gap think I'm mad already have so much there anyway enough rambling its picture time ...
