Summer at last?

After what has seemed like a month of wet and cold weather since yesterday it has been lovely. Ive planted dwarf beans and broad bean plants into the allotment. Some courgette plants and lettuce have also taken well so fingers crossed that we dont get any unpleasant shocks now - such as frosts!

Update on 10th May

After a very wet past week or two today was much brighter and I was able to plant most of the brassica plants - sprouts, broccoli, sprouts.

The asparagus continues to grow quickly and provide us with a weekly meal of around 8 or 9 pieces.

The potatoes are now starting to grow strongly and the First Early - Lady Christl - have a lot of foliage and hopefully a lot of potatoes too!
