The shed at the beginning of the month was not a pretty site. Its better since I tidied it. ( This photo was taken before !) I must take another one before it gets untidy again.

About time!

Well I've been so busy at the plot that the blog has been rather ignored for the last month or so! There's so much to do! The weather is gorgeous and the weeds ( and some of the veg!) are growing rapidly. So a quick update or what I've been doing instead of writing this...

We have been given some onions grown from seed and they are looking healthy. The garlic is growing well the in-laws weeded it when they were staying at the beginning of the month. I've either of them are reading this please pop back soon the weeds have grown again! The potatoes are all up and I have earthed them up a couple of times but probably didn't need to as the weather has been so warm. The rhubarb is growing well and the blueberries are flowering -

hopefully the birds won't eat the berries this year I'd better cover then over soon...

Some of the raspberries that I moved in the winter are beginning to shoot again but some look terminal perhaps they were summer flowering and I shouldn't have chopped them when I did? Broad beans are flowering but have black spot on the leaves don't know if that means they are terminal too? The peas are looking ok and beginning to twine their way around the chopped off bits of raspberry canes.

I've planted lots of seeds; sweet peas, sunflowers, marigolds and even some dahlias. Most seem to be ok haven't transplanted any except a few sweet peas so far.

JB and JB cam over a couple of weeks ago and helped us to dig the final bed for this season. I'm trying to grow some pumpkin seeds ready for when they come over again and then they can plant them in this new bed. So far the seeds haven't appeared only a week and a half left for them to appear and get big enough for transplanting. Watch this space...
