i really cant remember a time i have been more frustrated with the weather than at the moment.

3 weeks ago the plot looked perfect and i was looking forward to my best year. Plenty of things sown and big plans for more but since then everything has been on hold.

The plot will be full of weeds and just been in the garden to sow some things and 5 minutes later down it comes again so rain stops play.

one day we will breed a "flowering mushroom-bog-cactus"  that will survive anything and look nice too

[Bing]

It's only rain... Not FROST!

Wish I had my runner bean planted out before this "Monsoon" season started.

The soil is still too cold for them and the cold winds would have killed them if they were outside

[DD.]

AND if they get waterlogged, they're a gonna also. One of the plots on our site has been taken out of commission for this reason.

It's the chilly temperatures going with the rain that is holding up growth on my plot. It's draining nicely for the first time since I have had it (dunno about the plot next to me which is down the slope mind if he has my overflow).

Im getting a bit sick of it, as Im missing digging over my plot.

Although not warm enough for anything tender, its not actually cold. Nightime temps here are meant to be around 10 degrees for the next few days. Im hoping that when it is time to plant some beans and squash and corn etc out in a few weeks, this rain will have been replaced by glorious sunshine and the soil will be nice and moist.........

the rain has finally stopped here hurrah got the dogs out, and they came back wet and muddy  we are forecast a sunny monday so fingers crossed I can get some compost in some pots ready for the runners at the end of the month ( with a little help from a 3 year old) it has been raining here practically non stop for 3 weeks, my allotment fine thank goodness.
