    Just wondering how people are getting on!
    Is every body ready for growing season? And what have you got in ground already. My new plot is starting to come together nicely. I've got taties in and my first lot of peas. I will try and get some pics up for the end of the weekend

      Most of our tatties are in, I've made a couple of swaps with other plot holders and those swaps have yet to go in. Currently digging over our onion bed (I'm late this year) and our onions are ready to go in, growing well in modules in the polytunnel...along with our shallots. Broad bean plants waiting to go out too.

      Jerusalem artochokes planted now too and Yams have been sown into pots, beetroot into modules. All fruit pruning is now finished and peas to be sown next week. Forced Rhubarb ready to be picked.

      Steve...:)

        Sounds like you have things under control Steve. I've been up again today and planted out my onion seedlings and also started with my sets.

        Tatoe's, carrots and red and white onions are in. Peas, beans and a courgette in a growbag. Honeybear squash, butternut squash and pumpkins waiting to be big enough to go outside.

        Rhubarb not doing too well however, probably needs more watter.
