Another plot

Like webmaster ..so much do do but im looking forward to this one(in the next door village),plus we had a break in at the shed at the other allotments(our village) with most tools gone I was warned it would happen but i thought it wouldnt
Its been mostly covered for 12 month and nothing has grown here for a 4 yrsbut does look bumpy so a lot of leveling to be done

Some trees to be dealt with..

But not these,no idea what they are..


Got some fencing..bonus

And a bit of a park for jess

Just need a break in the weather to get cracking

 

Sorry you got your tools stolen joolz....you can't leave anything unattended these days.

Looks like you've got plenty to do though with your new plot.

I got some free brussels sprout seeds through the post. They're called Agincourt F1 by Mr Fothergills. I can't use them as I've got no room. I can stick them in the post for you if you want them?

 

Thanks fern really kind of you,ive not eaten the ones i grew last yr so i doubt i will be growing sprouts again,no fans of them or red cabbage in this house apart from me xx

The trees will be chopped down,i think its mostly evening sun mid summer that they will cause shade,i was told they was planted as a wind break originally but like we know trees suck nutrients from the soil so its off with thier heads
I got my seed potatoes on thurs,il defo be growing cabbage(in abundance), kale,broccoli,chard,onions(from sets) spring & bunching onions,leeks(lots of),...peas,beans,nasturtiums(from seedswap),giant pumpkins,M's giant sunflowers
Courgettes&carrots,lettuce types i might do like pak choi but others i might grow at home.
Fennel,coriander,sage,rosemary,thyme,chives i will also plant at the allotment even thou i have or grow it at home.
Your doing a great job clearing your plot im dreading uncovering mine x

 

Ive just come across this you need to prob zoom to read thou

 

Nice one Joolz

 

Weve got 3 plots on the other site but not sure what to decide yet,i cant do all 4 thats for sure
but 1 isnt enough i need lots of greens for the hens x

 

I've broken all those rules plus some more..

 

Ive just been looking at the pics ive taken to see where is best to start clearing it and i noticed there are holes in 2 of the mounds(dump lumps),could something be living in them?
This mound is 5 ft high & 4ft wide and runs the width of the allotment..

This is just a heap about 3ft high,,

 

That should keep you busy for a while..

With all the plots combined i think i will ask for a plough for my birthay x
