Monday 15th August 2016 – Shallots and Kohl Rabi
Another very busy morning on my allotment. Today I harvested all my Shallots and Kohl Rabi. Some of which looks a little strange, but then I’ve grown them, so I wouldn’t expect anything perfect looking. I also managed to dig … Continue reading

Friday 8th July 2016 – Harvest, weed, water, repeat!
Another very busy 4 hours on my allotment today. I’m now systematically working my way through each bed. I harvest, weed, then water, then move onto the next bed and do exactly the same. If I find any spare space, … Continue reading

Will it rain, or won’t it rain? That was the question I kept asking myself this morning before I left for the allotment. The answer…both! This morning started off lovely and warm and sunny, but as the morning went on … Continue reading

Friday 12th February 2016 – Sowing Broad Beans and Shallots
Today is the day when I get to sow my Broad Beans. This year it’s “Bunyards Exhibition” which I got from Pennard Plants at Gardeners’ World last summer. Apparently they’re suppose to be really good, so I can’t wait to … Continue reading
Wednesday 18th September 2013 – I think I’ve got enought potatoes to last us a while, don’t you?
Having not been able to get down the allotment for a couple of days because the weather has been so crap, I was starting to pace. But today was dry and sunny, so off I went to see what else … Continue reading

Friday 5th July 2013 – If we had no weeds, gardening would be much easier.

Monday 22nd April 2013 – All the onions are finally in.
Well I finished digging the bed that the onions were in, and got the last 46 in, so that’s them all in. Just the shallots to go now, which will have to be tomorrow. But I’ve got to turn the … Continue reading
Wednesday 17th April 2013 – Oh my, did I really plant that many onions today?
When you’re so involved in what you’re doing on your plot, you don’t add up how many of various plants you’ve sown, until the end. This afternoon in amongst the windy weather and lovely sunshine I turned over another bed … Continue reading
