April 2016 Getting Busy

Sunday 3rd April
On plot for about five hours digging in muck, absolutely knackered.  Got some first earlies in a bed on Plot 13 so a little bit of progress.  Got a metre squared bed sorted out with strawberry runners which is good'ish.   Some pesky beastie is digging up the recent onions that went into a patch on number 7 - very irritating.

Sunday 10th April
Got another five hours done - all on Plot 13 - got one bed ready for brassicas,   got some spuds in on a plot where brassicas had been.  Got bean row taken down as that's going to be on one of the beds at the bottom this year. am going to have to mow and what have you real soon.   Got another bed at the side cleared - got five bags of weeds taken to the recycling centre.  Got the raspberry patch all weeded as much as possible and plenty of muck chucked on.

April 2016

Week ending 3rd April 2016
Got to the lotty.  Got three beds-worth of muck dug in.  Got two rows of first earlies (bottom left'ish of this photo) in the ground - it says they should be Duke of York.   Got my second strawberry metre squared sorted out.   All good stuff.


March 2016

Not a lot to report.  Lots going on in the greenhouse but only got down to the lotty on a couple of occasions.  The main one being to take delivery of a couple of tons of manure.
