Wow, what a cauli!  . Today I dug over the part of the spud bed which has been harvested and planted out the leeks.  No time to make space for more so gave some leek seedlings to a plot neighbour and left the last 8 calabrese plants by the trading hut for someone else to use them

Weeding, strimming and more weeding.

Exactly the same as Eblana above. Oh and I almost forgot, I started to dig over a new piece of ground as an expansion of the plot.

Finished clearing a space fir a polytunnel. Pic too large to attach!

Replaced the shed roof which took a bit longer than expected so no time to do anything else today. Will get round to more weeding and clearing later in the week hopefully

Popped up with the kids to harvest some stuff after 11 days away on holiday to find everything still clinging on without being watered!! Popping back on my own in a few hours to soak it all!! Good veg harvest though 😀

Showoff.

Just joking Elm street, that's a fantastic Cauli, can't get mine like that, nice one.
I have just had a couple of hours down at the plot. Didn't do that much really as it's not looking that bad at the moment. Did a bit of hoeing, weeding, strimming and a bit more digging on the part of the plot I am expanding into, approx 10ft square.

No offence taken mugs 
First time growing them as well, I'm really pleased with the variety and we have had another since Sunday about the same size (5 1/2Lb).
They are all arriving at the same time though as there are other two just about ready to harvest and four more that will be ready next week!! Another freezer required I think

Only harvested beetroot, lettuce and blackberries but off the plot I have just bought a 6m x 3m poly tunnel so the work to clear the ground starts soon!!! 😀

I haven't been on the forum for a few weeks, due to spending any spare time on the plot or in the kitchen jamming.

Over the last couple of weeks I've dug up a lot of new potatos. cut all the spud foliage down apart from the sarpo Mira, the rest were dying and looking unwell - I didn't want my plot neighbors thinking I had blight.
All my allotment tomato's got the same problem as last year (looks like a gnome had strangled the stems) so the green toms are in the fridge.
Picked carrier bags of runner and French beans, made some bean chutney using the recipe on the forum.
Admired the sweetcorn (fingers crossed I get to eat some this year) gave these a tomato plant feed
checked on the squashes and was surprised to find quite a nice crop under the leaves. fed these some chicken manure.
All my onions died at the end of June and the satsuma sized bulbs are in the shed with the small shallots. This bed really needed some organic matter for better nutrients and water retention!
Sowed 2 rows of beetroot where the onions were.
Sowed a row of Florence fennel.
covered over a section of the plot that had peas and potatos in - I just don't have time to do anything with this area at the moment! such a waste!
Hoed the paths and around the herbs on 1 half of the plot will do the other half next week.

Pruned the plum trees, cut out the old raspberry canes, planted a green and a red gooseberry plant that I picked up for £1.89 each and picked chillis, runner beans and French beans

[Thrutchington]

Harvested beans and filled the car with ash branches to log up.
