Vinny's Allotment Plot

Hailstones were bouncing off the car when I arrived at the allotment and I had to wait for it to ease before getting out of the car.

Managed to get from the car to my greenhouse before it stated again.   Sorted my seeds out and sowed all my old packets of various kale into a large pot. Also sowed old PSB seed into another large pot. Both of these were placed outside as their was no need to take up greenhouse space.
It was sun and hail showers but during a lull I managed to weed and rake down a bed which consisted mainly of last years potting compost. Into this I sowed all the carrot seed I had which was mainly Nantes into three rows.
Whilst it wasn't raining I managed to erect a wigwam of canes for my climbing French beans which are just starting to break through the compost in the green house.

The next plan was to sow some Purple Top Milan turnips direct. This wasn't possible because it had started to hailstone again. In the past I have had some success with module sown Swedes so I thought I would try the turnips. 30 modules sown with a pinch in each as a trial but I may still sow some direct when the weather is better.

I finished off by hoeing the weeds on the  whole plot but with the soil being so wet I am not optimistic that the weeds won't re-root.(eek)
