THE MASTERS plot ,a new begining

ive got loads happening . and all its taking is just an hour a day. i cant belive how easy it is . im doing everything from seed . my poptatoes are comming up . my onions setts are also comming up. there the one i put straght in
ive potted up loads of vegies bean,s peas,beetroot's parsly, mint , pumkins , sweetcorn , garlick blahh blahh etc etc ....

im actually growing so much stuff im getting :confused: with wot's growing :rolleyes:

 

Good on you master!:thumb: I'm envious, as I've said before I'd love an allotment but no one will come in with me. Everybody loves the idea of home grown veggies but nobody wants to put the work in. I get stupid comments like there is no point getting an allotment around here because the soil is depleated!! I'm sure they think you just throw a few seeds around and it looks after it's self.:eek:

 

todays update. (or should that be yesterday).

we have another plot owner all sined up . (we know who this is) ive lent him my spare key so he can get started

Apparently there is a roomer that another plot has been let out, but no one knows who the mistery person/persons are, we will have to wait and see, it takes about two weeks for the counsil to send the key and paper work out.

at this rate we should (hopfully be full in a year or so).

 

Hi Master! Just had a quick look at all your piccies - the plot looks great and your compost bin is brilliant! (one of my things - is composting!!) Looking forward to seeing more piccies as everything starts to grow!

 

hi suss, thanks for the interest
ile give you todays update
ive been up the plot and the tattys are coiming up. bothe early's and pink furry . the set onions are comming up aswell.
today i put in two rows of carrots (ive only done a few cos apparently carrots and our allotment dont work for some reason:confused
and also in the next bed i put in garlic
hopfully ive done the right thing and hidden away the carrots between the onions and garlick . we shall see if my thinking works

also today . and ive just got back from mthe allotment testing my rotorvator. yes gone 12 and i was rotavating
ive managed to sort out the running prob with my rotorvator
this one turned out to be the condeser was breacking down over a certian temp
the little babby now starts first pull and keeps running .. wahhho .. im so happy :thumb::D:D:D:D:D:D:D

 

You have been busy once again Master I think once our garden has been all worked up we might have to tackle an allotment that's if we can get our hands on one.Well done and keep up the good work I for one will look forward to seeing pictures of your fully grown veg.Hel.xxx.

 

THANKS HELL☺

we have a new freind on the allotment . and i managed to get a picky

i took that picky the other day with my moby phone , and i tellya this little chap is not scared
today he popped allong and hovered and dropped down 6foot away (or there near abouts)
all i heard was a rustle in the grass looked round and saw the kestral take off with a mouse (or somthing ) and it was only a few feet away.:eek:
the allotment is proving more interesting day or night .
im going to have to do some night shots (ive got a vid cam that can work in absulute dark zero lux)

 

Hi Master obviousley it is some kind of bird of prey but for dummies like me me What is it?:D 02

Sorry Kestral, teach me to read before I shout. How are your veggies doing master?

 

hi ya 02
things are comming up slowly but surley
ile do a few pickys tommorow of wot ive got in pots ready to go in

ive only had the allotment since march. so im trying to slow things down a little(prepping the soil etc) so that i can hopfully control the weeds on the plot.

if i dont win this year im enjoying getting there
:D

 

Master rough night eh?
Hope you get your sleep dear fellow and don't forget us nosy lot want to see your pictures.:D Hel.xxx.

 

Just looked through your whole thread Colin! Wow - you have come on great guns!

A man who is happy with a potato for his birthday present..... I LIKE IT!

Seriously, the ground prep you have done is a real credit to you and to get your boy involved is brilliant - get 'em when they're young and impressionable!!!

Your home-made compost heap is highly desirable and if I lived closer I would be sneaking in during the night and nicking it! (Oh drat - just seen you have a night vision camera...)

My mum has tried nearly every type of compost device and she swears by her old pallet ones as being by far the easiest and best. We used to get slow worms in her old pallet heaps so be careful when you stick your pitchfork in them that you don't kebab any.

Would be great to see your emerging spuds....

 

my daughter LISA has got the hang of the little rotorvator, she is only 12

my pea are in

and today i put in the broad beans

nothing needs watering cos after all the rain weekend just gone its rather weyt up there

lucky git he lives in a house that is on the aprouce ally to our allotment (basicaly he comes out of his garden gate and boof he's on the allotment. he can litterraly throw a stone from his house and itle land on his plot ... lucky git..):D

 

HI - I saw you are in west london - where abouts are you?

 

Well TM, Pete looks like a good laugh:D Yes, he is lucky to live so close to his allotment. Does he bring a flask with him or just nip home for it?

cheers
