Had a bit of a shock this morning never seen it so busy at the allotment ,must have been the sunshine.
I wanted to get my cabbage and cauliflower cage built quickly so i could get them planted ,things didn't work out as planned and it took a long time to build... not only that because i have club root on my plot i have to dig a hole where i am planting each one sprinkle lime then fill it with compost it helps !!....derrr i forgot the compost so decided to abandon my plot after an hour and a half and return after lunch.
The afternoon was very different no one was there except me and callum , i didn't forget the bag of compost this time .
Planted 3 summer cauliflowers ,2 summer savoys and 1 summer golden acre ... there is lots of room in the cage to plant autumn and winter varieties later on
1 cage down 1 to go ,next the taller cage which will be for brussel sprouts,broccoli,calabrese ,purple sprouting broccoli and kale it took even longer to build it but got there in the end.
I only had 2 plants to plant in there and they were 2 brussel sprouts, the other things will follow later on
Hoping to go down again in the morning i have lots of peas in my greenhouse to plant really need the space in there!!
