29th September 2011

when i look back this time next year to see what was going on ,I'll be shocked to read how hot it's been!!!
First chance to get to the allotment since my car came home :) spent 2 hours there wanted to spend longer but i knew i had to get back.
spent a long time weeding i think they are slowing down now well everything but the nettles!! as i was pulling weeds up i found a radish i took it home and ate it :)

My parsnips are looking very big i had a peep today can't wait until the first frost has been then ill test one frost is said to make them taste sweeter

Couldn't believe the courgette plant has burst in to life again and is producing lots more courgettes also the french beans have flowers again i thought they had finished

Looks like I'll be bringing home my other 3 pumpkins soon they have turned orange

Pulled up the sweetcorn today it produced plenty of cobs but inside only a few yellow bits were there if you remember i bought them late in the season as plants ,so next year will grow from seed

the allotment is looking quite bare now ... i have some carrots ,parsnips,leeks,b.sprouts,french beans, swedes, pumpkins courgettes celery and i think that's it apart from fruits..... hoping i can get down tomorrow too
