I've attempted to prune the fruit trees. Didn't really know what I was doing so we'll just have to see what happens when they begin to fruit or not! The Autumn fruiting raspberries have been pruned too; right down to the ground following careful reading of at least 2 allotment veg books so fingers crossed for them too.
I've dug one more bed probably for the maincrop potatoes. The earlies are chitting right now in the dining room and look as though they will be ready to go in in the next couple of weeks. Hope this isn't too early?
I planted a couple of seed trays up with some more early peas and put them in the cold frame. Hopefully if any of the others are devoured by slugs I'll have some replacements.
We've cut some large yoghurt pots in half and used them to protect the broad beans as they are growing.
