A trip back to the allotment before I get a letter!
Weeds were three feet high and courgetes were full blown marrows!
Spent a couple of hours hand weeding (my back can testify to this) and hoe-ing! I managed to get the plot looking semi-respectable and hopefully avoided a letter.
Onions are ready for harvesting and I harvested a few. I stole a couple of plumbs which were hanging over my plot from next doors tree, and very tasty they were too!
I have two grape vines trained into the greenhouse with one small bunch on each.
The spring cabbage are hearting up even though it is now autumn.
I will try and get back on a decent weather day next week and tickle over some beds , adding manure as I go,ready for the winter planting
