Vinny's Allotment Plot

Back at plot yesterday for more weeding. Mainly using hoe to weed as ground was damp and weeds were shallow rooted. Stooping to hoe does affect your back but not as much as hand weeding.
To try and get away from the 'Brown desert' look I will be trying to grow stuff over the winter,even if it is just green manure. Dismayed at how many plotholders just cover the beds with black plastic or weed membrane for the winter and return to plot at Easter. The Council seem to look upon it with favour and class these guys/gals as good plotholders? Ah, well,each to there own I suppose.?

As well as hoeing I tickled a few beds over ready for planting. I have four main crops I grow through the winter and usually start some of them off under glass.to this end I covered some of the beds with glass yesterday.

Jaanese type onion sets, spring cabbage, broad beans and garlic/elephant garlic are what I usually grow but if anyone has any other ideas for sowing I would be interested?
I still have leeks and onions growing as well as last years sring cabbage which have turned into autumn cabbage!
