So skip a couple of months and we're here!
What I've got so far
shallots - they're doing fine on the surface but I don't know about underneath
carrots - hmmmm, not too sure about these. Following advice from a fellow plotter, Tooty, I haven't gone near these, either to thin or weed. So they look atrocious BUT I have confidence in them and we shall see when they are uprooted.
beetroot - I'm really not confident about these at all. There's a few seedlings but nothing to what I sowed earlier.
cabbage and broccoli - looking good - slow, steady progress
spinach and lettuce - happy with these, especially the spinach. Looking good
maincrop tatties, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries - dead chuffed with all of these.
And speaking of fruit, today I finally got round to constructing a bird-proof zone for them. I've never done anything like this before but I think it looks quite good, even if I do say so myself haha. Fingers crossed it stays upright because the wind can be quite strong at times. There's not a lot of shelter. We're sandwiched between the wide open space of a golf course on one side and the harbour entrance on the other.
My mum and dad were at a plant sale this morning and kindly bought me small brussel sprout plants. Now where to put them?......
Speak later, Christine
