The joys of  my new cordless drill .... built several raised beds at the bottom of the plot in an area where the ground is not so good.  Another 4 to build over the next few weeks.

Planted out in seed pots beetroots, leeks, Pak choi, sweetcorn, tomatoes, carrots and left some at the plot and some are now sitting in our warm sunny lounge!

Can't avoid more digging but that will have to be next weekend.

Planted a few rows of Red Rooster. The trenches were manured and fed with FB&B - they best appreciate it. Moved the strawberry runners in to their new bed, growing through a weed membrane. 

Pleased to see all ten new raspberry canes coming to life and happy that I followed the planting advice on here. 

Filled a few seed trays of sprouting broccoli, calabrese and sprouts and popped them in to the little cold frame I made a few weeks ago.

Continued raking the newly constructed raised beds and gave the inside of shed door an undercoat of paint.
