Mini Gardening Update


Spent about 7 hours at the plot over the weekend and I've finally got potatoes, strawberries, beetroot, carrot, red onion, horseradish, mustard and mixed salad leaves planted.  Still got loads more to plant - it all took a bit longer than I thought! (my bit is unfortunately not the raised bed!)  It's all coming together now though.

    Congratulations on your veg! I'd love to have a plot, but sadly the waiting lost for a plot in my area is closed, and I think even if you're on it, you have to wait about 25 years! xx

      well, hopefully something will grow ;) I was just lucky as there was some spare space as normally allotments have a waiting list of about 10 years (if you are lucky!) x

      :) I grew some stuff at a different garden last year and it was amazing to see things grow (and eat them!) Fingers crossed these ones grow! x
