Photo journal of the jonah plot

It's been a while since I've updated, but we're still plugging away at the plot.

   

We have lots of garlic and some elephant garlic, a handful of broad beans, and pigeon-chomped PSB growing. The early rhubarb is almost a foot high. I've been consolidating many of my flowers into a single bed to make clearer spaces for the veg to go this year. I've sowed some turnip, beet, pea, and mangetout on the plot, more in hope than expectation. I typically start everything that will tolerate a transfer in the GH before taking to the plot, but I can't wait to see things sprouting and growing, so thought I'd try some direct sowing.

We gave a big haircut to the massive rose on the plot. It might not like it this year, since we're getting on toward spring, but it cleared up so much space and I have no doubt it'll rebound.

We got the nod to burn the dilapidated shed, so I'm hoping we have time for that next weekend before the burning season is over. If I don't have to haul that mess off site, I might be excited enough to buy something to replace it.

We have loads of onions to go in soon. Hoping to get organized to cover things appropriately this year, so the pigeons don't have all the brassicas and fruits.

So, yeah. That's where we are.
