    Hello Everyone

    Well thats all the veg in Onions,Cabbages,Leeks,Turnips,Coli's,Potatoes,Sweetcorn,Brocoli,Peas and Potatoes.

    Everything is coming on great but some of the Brocoli and Coli's were getting nibbled off birds so we have had to put more netting up.

    Looks like you'll have a productive plot this yearimage 

    Weather doesn't seem to have been as kind on this side of the country. A lot of plot holders started planting out a few weeks ago and were caught with late frosts.

    looks fantastic! id like to do something similar to the back of my garden, how long did it take you?

  • bazabaza Posts: 670

    Thanks Zoomer44 yes i got caught with the frosts lost all my nasturtiums so i've had to start again with them .

    Hello Beczilla i got the plot 2 years ago and it took me a few months to get it sorted out and put things in place after that i've been tweeking with the garden till its what you see on the photo's and me and the mrs love it especially now when the summer is just round the corner.

    Hia GG thats great to hear i'm sure you'll enjoy your allotment as much as we do.

    Thats great you got a greenhouse for free its great what you can get for free these days if you look around.I got a load of window panes off my dads cousin so my dad has stripped them down and made window frames out of them which i'm going to make a walk in cold frame behind my greenhouse as i found the one i have was too small i'll post photo's when its made.

    Post your photo's so everyone can see how you get on.

    Thanks
