    Looks great Baz, sorry about the frost, but it's not too late to plant and sow. Sweet corn, runner beans and French beans, carrots, beetroot, spinach can all be sown in May and I expect other things can too. One year I just pushed outdoor cucumber seeds into the ground where there were spare places, in May, and I had loads.

    Hi Baz n Hels, looks like 2016 will be a very productive year on your allotment.

    Really enjoyed watching your progress last year, all the hard work paid off and you made it such a lovely plot that would put some peoples gardens to shame.

    Looking forward to seeing more this year. image

    Looking forward to seeing the sweet peas around the garden arch it should look the part and the 20 odd large sunflowers we have planted out fingers crossed on them
