Too cold ( and snow forcast!!!) to pop the spuds in yet so took a few snaps to show where the plot starts after a year of work on it.
This is the plot from the road. Compared to last year, all the beds are formed, all the paths are in, there's a coldframe for raising things that are a bit fragile, and there is a coffee table and chairs for those custard cream moments.
The garlic bed is coming on a treat, now being the size it was at the end of last season, with another 6 months growth in it yet. Should keep the vampires at bay (there were none on the plot so it's obviously working.
The leeks are still failing to bulk up, despite the ones on my neighbours plot coming on in leaps and bounds when planted at the same time. This year I'll plant them in another bed and make sure there's plenty of pork pies dug in to feed em well and make them bulk up. Well it's worked with me ;-)
Seeds to sort out this weekend ready for planting in april when they shouldn't get killed off by the nasty frost.
