Completely, embarassingly sunburnt. Was up at the allotment by 8am this morning. I love the fact that my fellow lot people are quite slow to arrive. It lets me cycle the wrong way round the plots to see what/where everyone else is up to. I love the different styles. It is so peaceful.
I decided to plant today. The ground was warm and the rain was forecast. I planted the rest of my onion sets (about 20), 3 rows of cos lettuce, 3 rows of radishes, 3 long rows of carrots.
I dillydallyed about potatoes and missed my opportunity. However today when I was digging one of the beds I discovered some sprouting old potatoes. I collected them up (about 10) and replanted in mounds. I hope something comes of them.
I also planted some more gladioli bulbs and checked on the rhubarb plant my mum brought me yesterday.I have started some peas & tomatoes off at home and am waiting for some seedlings to be delivered. I have forgotten what I ordered – but that makes it more fun when they arrive…! It’s annoying that I wont get up there again until next weekend. (I dont get home from work until 7.30pm) but I really feel like I have achieved something this weekend.
