Potato Shoots Appear

At last there is some growth on the plot. The 1st early potato (Orla) have pushed through the ground. Also the turnip seeds I sowed last week have germinated - wasnt expecting to see them yet!


I got the rhubarb planted yesterday, and today started removing the turf on BED3. Im in a rush to get this finished, as I need to get the onion sets in!





The last of the sweetcorn germinated - thats 100% germination rate!





The greenhouse had a few new arrivals, a friend had 2 tomato plants left over, and as they are a different variety to what I have i said Id take them.


I sowed 27 climbing beans - variety Blauhilde. They are a purple podded variety and quite decorative by all accounts. Ill sow more in a few weeks for a succesion.
