Flying visit to plot today because I was in the vicinity. As usual, no one was there, even though it was bright, if not a bit parky!
ecided that while I was there I may as well pull up all my Frenchies and gather the beans. I was surprised how little weed growth therewas in the rows so methinks the bean foliage blocked the light out so weeds couldn't prosper. I hae put a piccie of a tray full of beans and not looking forward to shelling them.
I also tied up some chrysanths that had taken a battering from the wind. Harvested a couple of cougettes and three leeks. Fancy making a drop of allotment produce leek & potato soup. I might even make enough to freeze some for the winter nights!
