Too dry, we need rain! Lots going on outside, planting enough lettuce to feed a rabbit warren.

It's crazy weather - poor plants are very confused as well as thirsty.

we have been holing back on some plantings because at first the ground was to cold then after cultivating both plots with the tractor and scuffle the soil came down fine but very dry actually to dry to plant without watering the plants in same goes for the raised beds everything we planted needed watering so as i said we have been holing on for some rain haven't even planted the seed potatoes and onion sets yet that's next weeks jobs you never know  we mite get some rain over the bank holiday :D
