Plot is now full.
« on: May 17, 2009, 14:06 »
Every usable inch of my plot is now in production.
The last plants to go in today were my 34 Sweetcorn and 4 Butternut Squash.

The only other sowing I have got to do over the next week is re-sow Parsnips in the gaps where the first sowing didn't germinate. Is it too late to sow Parsnips does anyone know?
99% Organic and 1% Slug Pellets.

Allotment holder since 27th May 2007.

Actually, parsnips like warmth to germinate so if you direct seed, they'll pop up in no time. They might not grow as large as the others, but they'll still be a useable size.

My plot is full or all space allocated to  :( .

Since all my sweetcorn has germinated have got a spare 'square'. Considering loosing part of my path to home it  :unsure:
I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

Have you got any photos of your plot? I'm sure people would like to see them if you have, including myself. I'm still waiting for a plot, it will give me an idea of what I have to look forward to.

Cheers

Mine is not full yet, but as someone said it is all allocated and am thinking ahead to the pasces left by the spuds in the summer, might try some more peas there.  Put in some leeks yesterday and got a first bathc of corn to go in tomorrow hopefully, weather permitting.  still got one bed to prep which should be relatively easy given the rain, though its been compacted byt being walked on last year.  got squashes to go in there if ready in time other wise they'll be in the manure pile.
