I have been to the plot each day since I last posted. Just about all beds are now prepared. Yesterday I sowed two lots of leeks and some blackĀ scorzonosa? I am gettting pretty low on water in the large water butt and have started to take water from the 1000 litre IBC tank which I have re-connected to the guttering on the shed so that when it eventually rains, I can harvest the water.
The brassica seedlings from the six various brassicas I planted in a seed bed seem to be doing fine and will soon be ready to transplant.
The various cucurbits I direct sowed have also germinated and some of these will need transplanting soon.
Quite a few of my neighbours have got letters from the Council to tidy up their plots but luckily they must have been happy with my plot as no letter was forthcoming!
