In the last couple of days I've transplanted the Flavor garlic which I had got started in the greenhouse in small pots. They had shooted really well and didn't suffer any setback at all when they were planted in the allotment.
The broad beans in pots in the greenhouse look good, and with the extra space left by the garlic I decided to plant more broad bean The Sutton seeds to help with the succession in due course!
Also in the greenhouse now are some red onion sets in pots to try and get a head start for the allotment and produce rooted sets to make it harder for the birds to uproot them once they're at the allotment.
Some nasturtium seeds in a seed tray complete this week's work in the greenhouse and in the next few days I'll get down to the allotment for some final digging and turning over of the soil and then select some ground that I'll cover in soil-warming sheeting in preparation for the first of the potatoes in mid to late March.
