[New shoot]

Potted on more tomatoes and peppers so almost everything is in a 1L or 2L pot now.  Sowed squash, cucumbers, dwarf french beans, dwarf cannellini beans, soy beans and baby corn.  Potted on lovage seedlings as well.

All a bit of a rush as I am off to work in a bit, but it feels like the plant factory is in full swing here

Good day of planting, tomatoes, peppers and chillies potted up, peas planted out, more seeds in and some weeding done.

Nothing at all this weekend. Had been at the plot every afternoon after work all week and every afternoon over the bank holiday. As the plot was looking very good, with not a weed in site decided to have the weekend off. Will be back on Monday afternoon though, watering it all and probably do hoeing as well.

Tackling last quarter of my original half plot. More digging and weeding. Rubbish to burn next visit then digging over and weeding last bit. Two more visits and plot ready for planting?
Covered some with black plastic as some lumps of grass.
OH came to start with my new half. A third dug over and weeded already but ground is so hard so he started on the bit with most lumps of grass! More managable now but still some to dig.
Had an explore of all the fruit bushes. Lots of gooseberries showing which I think the bushes are red gooseberries. What looks like a good sized apple tree and maybe cherry tree?
Found large piece of black plastic behind shed. Patch of ground between fruit that is bare apart from weeds. Covered that over until decide what to do with it.

Still behind with all the planting/sowing for the new plot- it is so dry I have pretty much given up digging at the moment🙁

I did get all the ground tubes in for the new polytunnel though, I think it is square!😄

OK all completed:
The tomatoes, cucumbers, and lettuce are planted out in the plastic houses.
Also French Beans are planted in the veg patch.
Had a small space so I planted a few rows of parsnips, a bit late but hey ho.
First green shoots on my other plants are starting to push through.
Cheers

You are miles ahead of me. Where in the country are you?

I'm right down south but have only risked planting out a very few climbing beans and they are surrounded by plastic sheeting along both sides and ends of the bean-frame.

Parsnips are through at last after direct sowing... they are frost hardy.

Yesterday: I cut a huge long hedge, mowed, hoed and watered. Not a bad day.

Popped in today after work (2-30pm) just to do some watering.

[chillimummy]

Another hour and half digging and weeding 
Getting on top of everything now.
Back on Friday to try and finish digging odd areas of weeds and grass as hoping to have rotovator by the weekend. Haven't sown anything direct yet so have peas and french beans to sow once soil is managable aswell as beetroot, turnip, spinach.

Hubby & I finished the new compost palace!😄 Back home for lunch & back to burn some rubbish, then I rejigged the water barrels & bottled 25 litres of comfrey juice. Then a put lots of cardboard on the squash bed & weighted it down with bricks,slabs & a pallet ready for Friday when it's due to rain. ☔️ came home very mucky for a hot shower

[Aled]

Thinned out a few of the new shoots.

Built a couple of wigwams for beans.(soil very dry so tricky to erect)
Cut the grass beds, removed fleece protection from spuds (still frosted despite protection)
Watered spuds, brassicas, beetroot and asparagus.
Fingers crossed we will get some of the rain that is promised later in the week.

Cheers HH

Emptied a few more plants from the greenhouse and into to their final resting place. I can walk in there now without stumbling.
Collected ten barrow loads of clean grass cuttings from the latest council mowing of our site pathways. Allowed to dry somewhat, it's always a brilliant bulk addition to the never ending compost/mulch/soil maintenance regime.

Moved a compost heap to make room for a new building..... transplanted some small shrubs.... watered seed beds... planted a dahlia... trimmed grass paths..

Stopped and stared
