Sitting on small chair.
I’ve hopefully changed my plot for a bigger one well when I get the paper from the council fingers crossed it should come tomorrow,i have not even had this plot for a year and I have changed it to a larger one. I don’t know if this is a good thing but we will see what happens over the coming months,I will take some pics of the new site to keep you all informed.
Went to the allotment tonight for a couple of hours to water the seeds and have a chat with some of the guys on the allotments,some of the seeds are coming on but some of the onions are not doing so well.Will keep an eye on them to try and get some life back into them,but in the mean time i have planted some more for good luck. I have managed to plant some more seed well the seeds i bought some time last year but forgot all about them,i have planted some more Ailsa Craig onions- Cucumbers Marketmore76 and some Red Cherry Tomato’s.Some of the flowers i planted a few weeks ago have started to grow not a lot but a little, Alyssum - Aster - Californian Poppy.
I went to the allotment yesterday to make sure everything was ok and check my seeds and plant some more, everything was ok no sign of the kids being on so all good. The onion and leeks were coming on ok so I decide to sow some more seeds in pots, I put some celery – beetroot – cherry toms in some pots. I also planted some more flower seeds which were some Aster – Dahlias – Marigolds will keep informed, if I keep sowing the seeds I think I will need a bigger greenhouse.
Went to the allotment on Sunday just to have a quick look around and water the seed, all seems fine no damage to any plots with kids getting on. A few more of the onion and leek seeds have grown a little more just waiting for toms and flowers to show face,I will be quite chuffed if the new seeds grow I’ve never grown seeds before. I’m hoping to get to the allotment a little more this week if I feel any better even if it’s to just to have a quick check,when i was they on Sunday another person had given up her plot to go to another site to scared to go back incase everyone else has left.
I’ve not been to the allotment since Sunday only because I am not feeling very well I think it’s man flu I have,I have been in bed just after 7pm most nights and sleeping most of the way till morning.I managed to go today and check up on the onion and leeks seeds I have growing,but with me not being at the plot for a few days the compost is quite dry just hope the seeds survive they little drought.
I also planted some tomatoes and pepper seeds to see if I can grow them also some flower seeds for bedding plants and pots,I’ve never grown anything from seed before so this is my first attempt at growing something.
Went to the allotment to finish of the front fence well the pallet fence, I managed to cement the gate post a bit more and sort a smaller gate for the other side. Also made a small shelf in the shed to start to put all the flower pots on from the greenhouse,then it will leave more space to start to plant a little more in the greenhouse.
