🌱 Greedy-gardens 🌱

Yep, I need to sort my toms out, looking at planting them out next Monday/Tuesday. Looks like no frost!

Been a hot one today, had to pull up my cauliflower as they were starting to look flowery #allotmentlife #growyourown

Still going through last year's! Just the curry bases left

I started to but lost count, when they're all potted on and have sticks it should be easier

More potting on, had to put up another plastic greenhouse #allotment #allotmentlife

And me!

Busy morning making woodchip paths and mulching #gardening #allotment

I have a cooker that's a cross between Marmande and San Marzano, been saving the seeds. I use it for my sauces. I've been given a few packs to try this year. That strip will have 20 rows of 6 plants!

I had a nice morning at the plot yesterday. It was cold but sunny. I managed to dig over this year's tomato bed and mulch the Asparagus bed

Handsome youthful man at his allotment

Start of a new year. I've just planted out spring cauliflower and early sprouting broccoli to give me a good start

Really nice, very easy to just chuck all the ingredients in and leave for 5 hours

It's my first trip for at least a month, Perfect weather for digging trenches

Homemade tomato soup and sourdough bread for lunch at the allotment

Sourdough loaf sliced to see the airholes

I know it's not an authentic sourdough shape but I wanted to try the sourdough setting on my new breadmaker. I did prep the sponge overnight!
