put the onion sets back in the soil - just hope taht they will be ok.
fixed some gutering to the shed and plumbed into citrus container - water supply issues lessened.
dug and levelled the centarl path - lesson from last year is that  a level path is easier on the wheelbarow - and the babys pram!
had a coffee and thought to myself ''i have missed this!''

I acquired a second plot in Dec that runs directly next to my existing plot, so yesterday I weeded it all, put some basic paths in and made the two plots into one lovely, continuous plot.

Well my Wife goes over morning and night to let put in the chickens,
She has got some weeds up but with all the mud it may be best to keep off it for a bit.
I'll start to go over when I'm a bit fitter as I've been poorly the last few months.
roll on spring.

Pulled the last of my leeks and dug up some parsnips. Then i stared at my Rudolph PSB ,which is meant to be the earliest, for a long time to will it on 

[flitwickone]

cut back the paths so i should get another row of spuds in burnt all the brambles and Christmas rubbish said hello to the rhubarb that has just woken up and generally tidied up the bins and compost heap and swept the shed and dug some leeks up for tonights dinner only have 6 out of 90 left

Finally got round to getting rid of the contents of last year's growbag and (donated) spent compost around the garden (the stuff used to grow tomatoes went on the roses rather than the veg plot!)

Also scattered the last of my supply of pure clay across the veg plot (this is yet another of my experiments based on the notion that there's only one soil type as problematic as very heavy clay and that's one with no clay at all!)

Dug in a bit more manure, until my boots became too heavy!

[wendyg]

Went to the plot to do some digging but it was too wet, took down the bean canes instead.  Then I scrapped the inch plus of mud off of my boots .   I hope the weather improves soon as I haven't finished the winter digging yet.

Not finished winter digging? I haven't even started it.

To be honest the way the soil is I wouldn't even compemplate it. If it's sticking to your wellies like that, pound to a penny you're doing the soil structure no good.

[Aunt Sally]

I've only done half my digging I'm afraid,  the early snow caught me out.

I won't go on the land if it sticks to my boots as it would do more harm than good to the soil structure.

My land drains quickly though so there will be time later when it dries out a bit.

I  have been lucky enough to change to another plot which is next to the one my O/H took on in October they are both just inside the gate which is the shortest distance we have to walk from home to lottys (which is about 300yards) my old one was right round the other side of allotment plots which took me at least 5 mins to walk (20 mins some days as have to stop and chat on way) and when I got there i could see my bungalow!!!!

But as the plot had been neglected since july I have lots of digging to do.
I am keeping my fingers crossed as I have just dug up asparagus and replanted in new bed, wrong time of year? but optamistic in that if i didn't move it,   no asparagus so at least a chance this way.

[Sweet Pea 2]

Went down to assess the the damage after the snow. Not any that I could tell.  My Leeks seem to have survived and I dug up some Parsnips and Carrots. Someone has left a load of manure so I dragged some bags full of that back to my allotment.  Couldn't get it over the Rabbit Fence so it is just sitting outside my allotment for now   No digging, far too wet.

[grendel]

beautiful day for the allotment and I am feeling too ill to go and do anything.

Cut back a 100ft hawthorn hedge that had become neglected. Cut into by about 4ft back to the tree stumps and it cut into me by about 1inch. ended up in hospital for 3 hours while a very kind nurse cut the thorn out with a scalpel. Thank god for local anaesthetic. Thigh now looks a mess, taught me a lesson though. Respect the hawthorn.

[Chicken Pete]

Like many of you I have just finished digging in manure that I spread last year. It looks good but the old problem has recurred i.e backache!!!!
Still that prepared the ground for my peas and puts me a little ahead.  The Garlic came through the snow and frost as did my winter onions so positive start to 2011.
