Photo journal of the jonah plot - doublyjonah - 21-05-2020

Hi all,

Some of you may remember from another time and place that I was fretting last year about taking on a full plot shortly after having my baby. I want to keep a little photo journal of our progress on the plot. If this isn't the best section for it, please let me know or move me as needed!

We took the plot in June last year (only a couple weeks shy of a year ago).

It's still in every way a work in progress, but this is where we are now.

Here are some embarrassing close ups of a few beds.

I hope to have the bed on the left behind the wheelbarrow full of beans, corn, squash, and pumpkins in the next month or so.

Overall, we're pleased with how we're getting on (even if our plot still looks worse than some of the established ones that have been neglected due to COVID isolation thus far this year!).

Hi DJ

I got mine about the same time so will do a similar post of pictures to make you feel good, and no baby here Smile

How big is your plot?

I'm not sure, actually. They just list them as full, half, etc. We measured once, but I don't have the figures to hand and I have no idea how many rods it is. I'll see if I can find my notes!

You've done really well, Especially considering everything else you've had to occupy you!!!

A baby as well as a plot!?? Therein lies madness, but all respect to you. You have really achieved wonders.

Thanks, everyone. The encouragement and advice we've had from the wise gardeners of the internet (and the nutty ones) have been so helpful.
