RE: Vinny's Allotment Plot - Vinny - 16-07-2025

Nothing exciting today at plot. Lots of hand weeding, munching on some of the remaining strawberries then ditto with raspberries.

Harvestd the elephant garlic which isn't much bigger than normal garlic, but left a few in the bed that were flowering just to see what happens?

I watered my two potted Alstromeria in greenhouse. These are sighted under a missing pane of glass so do get some water from the rain!

My greenhouse gapevine thinks it's autumn and has stopped growing and the leaves have started to turn yellow?

My fingers and palms of my hand are now tingling with pulling nettles and thistles out!

I did go to Helens grave first which was weedy so used a trowel to flick out weeds (couldn't find any weed & feed whilst shopping) and threw a box of a grass seed/fertiliser mix over the area to hopefully green it up? Also took a bunch of flowers and a gallon of water as for some reason they knock the water off at the graveyard during the summer???
