Hi Hoe... Hi Hoe... it's off to weed we go.

Today saw me finally tackle the weeds in the beds at the end of the plot. These are the ones which had been hit worst so the job took several hours.

Now that the weeds are all out you can clearly see how many of the 300 leek seeds I planted actually came up.




The keen eyed amongst you may be able to see a couple of things that look like grass, which amount to about a dozen leeks. So this year I'm going to have to put my close harmony singing on hold unless I can get another lot of leeks planted out in time.

The brocolli bed, now depleted of weeds, fared a little better as there are actually rows of broccoli, although not looking too healthy at the moment.



The second lot of dwarf beans from the coldframe also ventured out today and got planted where the first lot were supposed to be. They are on the right hand side of this pic, and the peas are the two rows on the left. Next weeks job is to put canes in for these to climb up.



The cauli's also got planted out but were looking a bit wilted by the end of the day. Hopefully the good soaking they got should pull them through.

And the spud bed is coming on a treat now it's weeds are out.



Finally today all the plots got a handfull of chicken poo pellets hoed and watered into them, apart from the tomatoes which got their own tomato food stuff as they are looking a bit poorly (yellow leaves which I think is cured by tomato food).
