Went down to my plot and noticed that my newish (1-2 month) slimline water butt and stand for the greenhouse had been stolen  .  Last week I had the tap on my ibc tank broken and half of the water drained, I hope we aren't due a drought as I only have one water butt useable now.  Sowed some more sweetcorn as not all of my first lot germinated, spring greens and hispi cabbage, and also some french beans and runner beans.

At home repotted the butternut squash plants, courgette and spaghetti squash plants - they aren't looking to good.

Got down early and planted out the  Runner Beans and Frennch Beans but for a bit of insurance plant a seed alongside each plant. Trailed more twine around the canes amongst the Broad Beans for support .Then out with the hoe as the warm weather had brought out the weed in abundance.

Planted out antirrhinums and sweet william and 4 tomatillos on the hugelkultur bed.

Took half of my tomato plants over and lined them along my shed. They'll be joined by their sisters tomorrow and planted. I'll have to bribe my kids to come to the plot with the promise of a trip to the park afterwards. They always moan like mad at first, then forget they don't like the allotment and start bug chasing.

Oooh nearly forgot - planted 2 rows of carrots and netted that bed

[Auntiemogs]

more strawberries. Grendel I challenge you to go a whole day without saying the s word. 

Ah...! 
Planted 12 toms (3 Orange Peruche, 6 Alicante, 3 San Marzano) in Mum's greenhouse before we ran out of compost and realised that we had more to go in.  Interplanted some Oca and some of my spare dwarf/climbing french and runner beans.  Back tomorrow for part 'deux' of the tomato chronicles...

Weeded and watered. Removed nets from courgettes and French beans. Removed bubble wrap fence from my dying sweetcorn. Removed fleece from pumpkins.

Weeded some more. 

Watered the compost which looked very dry. Ditched the veg scraps from home. Took Florence for two wheel barrow rides around site 

Doesnt sound a lot but I was up there for two plus hours 

[Beetroot queen]

Potted on 33 cabbage into 3 inch pots. Had a general tidy at home.

[grendel]

went, planted 2 rows cabbage and broccoli, hooped and netted then finally finished weeding the crops at that plot. only a few weeds round the leeks and the strawberry bed to finish now. still got the potatoes and onions to weed at my other plot, but that one is the wetter of the two anyway.

Planted out red cabbages and caulies, last 2 courgette plants, a few more runner beans to replace those that were pretty much dead, a few more asparagus peas and half a dozen giant sunflowers.

[Jackypam]

Also planted out the last 'insurance' runners beside the slightly frosted sad looking ones, and some seeds beside them just in case!  Tackled the last remaining last patch of grass in the fruit cage so the blueberry can breathe.  Did about a quarter.  Weeded, watered, looked hopefully for signs of life amongst the garlic, sweet corn and French beans. Nothing yet.  And no sign of the parsnip or swede, but the 'marker' radishes are up.  Oh and strimmed and mowed the paths.

[Mark's Sussex Allotment]

Watered, earthed up spuds, made about 12 mini cloches out of 2 litre lemonade bottles, feed leeks, and planted out some squashes.....

[RJR_38]

No plot today as I had too much other stuff to do sadly. However, I did plant out all the pots and baskets on the balcony with trailing lobelia, surfinias, petunias and cosmos. I think I need to look at growing some of my own bedding plants next year as I forgot how expensive they are  :mad

On the plus side, the balcony looks so much better - just got to wait for them to all flower now!

[devonbarmygardener]

Created my veg bed in the backgarden today - I'm running out of room at the lottie this year!!

I now have 2 short rows of 'Robinta' taters, 'Bijou' Climbing Mangetout on one wigwam, 'Golden podded' Mangetout on another wigwam and 3 PSB seedlings between.
Have also put the last 2 'Honey Bear' squash in next to the beans to spread around the flowers.

It's a bit of a trial bed as it starts off sunny in the morning, but by 4pm the bed that side is in the shade, but we'll see.

Still don't get my plot until next weekend, but trayed up potatoes for chitting, made sure all the runners and sweetcorn growing in pots in the utility room were well watered, got down all my old tools and gave them a clean/sharpen.

My biggest problem is not spending too much money. Really tempted by some telescopic tunnels in the local store, which come as either a net, a standard fleece or a fine fleece - two for £24.
