Hi GWRS, all my Dalia's blackened now too so dug them up and storing them in the garage for the winter, will plant them in a different spot next year. Hope to get to the plot tomorrow, still got cabbages and leeks to put in. Have a good weekend everyone.
Been to the plot really nice sunny day was building shed, done half of one side with pallet cladding which is good - just need more days like today to get the shed build
not many up allotments for a Sunday and a sunny day
Went to the plot this morning, got lots of jobs done. Surprised to find the water still on so have e-mailed association. It's usually turned off in October.
Gg, can you PM me your address so I can send pumpkin seeds.
Picked some kale and lettuce. Quite a few people there today.
Zoomer will PM you, the water stays on, on the site I am on, lettuce that is good I did not sow enough only keen mainly on the red lettuce
Did you want any seeds from me to swap with?
GWRS lots of figs - is it a big tree? thanks with shed still have one side to go and a half before painting and starting inside off - do like the pallet wood effect (colour) but best to make the wood last longer and protect it
Well went to the allotment for a small bit to do more cladding on shed did a small bit then it started raining and quite a bit so had to give up in the end - had to go to Wickes get more nails

Dropped of some muck at plot today. It's very cold here, snow was forecast during week.
Think I've missed sowing broad beans, and remainder of garlic cloves may need to be planted in modules.
Dug up my Dahlia's a few weeks ago.
Hoping to go to plot tomorrow to cover another bed.
Zoomer broad beans are hardy sowed mine on Friday with mixed in muck added to the area
allotment today looks nice and sunny
Hello all
Been to the plot really nice sunny day was building shed, done half of one side with pallet cladding which is good - just need more days like today to get the shed build
not many up allotments for a Sunday and a sunny day
How was anyones elses day?
Hello , yes been up to plot Nice sunny day
Cleaned Dalia bed and covered with own made compost as I leave them in the ground
I had put old compost in the compost bins but there must have been coir from hanging baskets , what is interesting is that it had never rotted down
Also tidied up fig tree as all the leaves had fallen , pruned and took off 193 unriped figs I was amazed at the number
Lots of other jobs , including starting recovering paths with shredded material
Need to start havesting stuff soon
Gardengirl hope weather holds do you can get shed finished
