I haven't even started my runners yet, although I did finish off there bed today ready for them in a while ... when it warms up ... say september ish? :roll:

Then I got mugged by the dentist, which kinda killed the rest of the day

Ahh well, at least the chicken s**t turned up, roll on summer .... and slugs, and bl**dy butterflies

Ah you're one of life's optimists

I tried drowning in tears once, then I realised that swimming lark was a hell of a learning curve  ... so now I tend to flounder

I stayed at home in the greenhouse and looked after the bean plants, tomatoes and trays more watching and waiting for spring to arrive - signs are there! 

[Zippy]

gently raining this morning, clearing later so it will be planting out tonight - nothing tender though even down here.

[monsta]

the horror lost all runners, sweetcorn and courgettes and me pots got nipped with the extreme cold the other night! 

[dexyblue]

At this rate with the weather and the lost produce we shall all be down the allotments all over Christmas basking in sunshine 

[andy135]

Oh well. it's only five weeks 'till the nights start drawing in!

Oh well. it's only five weeks 'till the nights start drawing in!

NO NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Sowed a row each of Carrots sugarsnax and early Nantes, Parsnip Avon resister and Beetroot Chioggia.

Planted out another 10 broad bean plants and sowed 10 each of French bean Blue Lake, Borlotti and Runner bean Celebration in pots inside.

Was happy to see that (despite looking like the surface of the moon) the potatoes seem to have survived the frosts and the leaves are emerging nice and green.

nothing too cold and wet

[dexyblue]

Potatoes got frost damage as well as loosing beans as well 

[scenic]

popped down to check the air a a few mins ago.  leeks + onions looking better for the rain. and seems to be helping the swiss chard pick  up. 

peas quite well through but appear to have stalled in the cold of this week

frost (or just prolonged cold) deffo appears to have got all French beans in the cold frame, + squash and courgette which were wrapped up all snuggly (erm well obviously not) so this week end is effort  to get some more going.

all good fun

[Half a plot man]

Popped up after work, sowed beetroot and parsnip seeds. Prepared two mounds ready for my boys pumpkins. Weeded around the fruit bushes. And had a long chat with our site rep. Oh, and earthed up the maincrop potatoes that have just started to show....

[STIG1963]

Put my main crop(maris piper)tatters in ,talked nicely to the climbing french beans to say its only cold and get on with it
