We've been busy the last couple of days off from work , down on the allotment and a fair bit in the house veg garden as well.
I've raked and crumbed down the beds on the allotment that were still free of crops, so now we are ready to sow the root crops.
I've sown some carrots and spring onions at home and I've also sown a row of carrots on the allotment. The home ones are under the mesh cover, the allotment ones I m going to leave and see what happens with them.
The shed has had a coat of wood preservative today and is looking great !
I ve also sown some radish and some beetroot in the smaller beds.
Most of today has been taken up building and filling our new cucumber and squash box and the supprt for them to grow off the growund. We're hoping that growing them this way will keep the fruits off the ground and out of harms way. Last year the squash plants sprawled out all over the place and looked scruffy, this year time will tell but things should be better. I've just got the netting to finish weaving together tomorrow.
