Vinny's Allotment Plot

Every Saturday after my remote exercise routine I always call at the plot because it's on the way home and close to the graveyard whereI an give Helen a visit.

I wasn't planning on doing anything as I had set aside time tomorrow (Sunday0 to have a good session there.

Half of the plastic covers over the newly planted brassias had disappeared? I know it's been windy but they each were at the bottom of a three foot ane pushed into the soil, and there's no sign of them. I replaed the ones that were missing and revelled that the pigeons hadn't devoured the plants not covered?

I notieed some red in the strawberry bed so thought I would munch on a few strawberries. After munhing a few I realised there were far too many ripe strawb s to munch straight away? Half an hour later and I had half a carrier bag full of ripe strawberries.  I now have two options, whether to give the majority to my daughter or whether to make some jam with them?

I also pulled out a load of Veggies favourite weed 'Sticky Willy'  and grabbed two of the mature Japanese onions to use at home. All the tops are now bending over and I am very pleased with the crop. The spring planted onions are doing good as well but not ready yet.

Tomorrrow I will harvest a load of broadies whose foliage is starting to yellow and plant out some leeks whih are pencil sized, along with loads of weeding as usual!

I am probably tempting fate but the six red cabbage I planted out (uncovered) havet been touched by the flying rats?
