Now with pictures........

Well I've been up to the allotment again today, despite the drizzle, to get some weeding done and prepare another bed. I also took some pictures of what's growing up there:

Red Baron Onions






Japanese Bunching Onion



Turnips



Early Nantes Carrots



King Edward Potatoes



Telephone Peas


I also got very excited today as I ate the first of my home-grown produce for lunch. I've had some of my very own Rocket in a salad, and very nice it was too!
I've transplanted some of my Chilli seedlings into individual pots which are growing nicely in my kitchen window.
I had another round of planting on Saturday and planted the following in my greenhouse:
  • Melons
  • Squash
  • Radishes
  • Cabbage
  • A.M Forcing Carrots
  • Rocket
  • Bunching Onions
  • Chicory
  • Peas
  • Leeks

  1. It's great when you start eating your own produce isn't it?
    Your lottie is looking weed free. I wish I could say the same about mine.
