Blog it up blog it in, let me begin…

Right, well we are both still alive and working the allotment. After a bit of a slow start things are starting to shape up. About 1/3 of the plot is lying fallow but we’ve packed in stuff to the other part.

We’ve not had the mega crop of peas we did last year, mainly due to not sowing them properly and early enough. However, we have made up for that with loads of onions, broad beans, sweetcorn, leeks, potatoes, sprouts and cabbages.

Not had much luck with courgettes, squash or pumpkin which we sowed and the salad crop has been a bit rubbish. The mega successes have been cabbage and strawberries.
