2023 - What I did today

I called at allotment thismorning just to do a bit of watering.

I've only taken the enviromesh off the calabrese yeasterday becaue it looked untidy and loand behold after one day the flaming pigeons had made a meal of them!
Enviromesh back on again now. Strangely they don't seem to bother with the sprouts or the cabbage I planted.................or have I spoken too soon!

They do seem to prefer the calabrese and caulis to the brussels and cabbage. I planted out a mix of brassicas a few years ago and went to have a cup of tea. Came back to cover them and every single cauli had gone. They like broccoli as well.
