Went down to the allotment on Friday. Having been digging since my last post, I got "BED 1" dug over. In it I planted 3 x 12ft rows of early potato "Orla", and 3 x 12ft rows of 2nd earlies "Maris Peer". As its a new site im still digging beds as I go so I got half of BED 2 dug. Thats going to be for the 200 onion sets I have at home waiting to go in. Then Ill start digging BED 3 for the maincrop spuds "Sharpo Mira".
Today, I sowed 3 short rows of carrot "Autumn King 2" in the raised beds at home. I also put 3 rows of Carrot "Amsterdam Forcing 3" in. I have a few more days off so tomorrow Im planning on finishing BED 2.
I also sowed cabbage "hispi" and "greyhound", curly kale "dwarf green curled", caulis "all year round" and "snowball" in cells in the greenhouse. The last attempt at any of the brassicas listed failed, due to what i believe was Damping off disease. Hopefully ill have some luck this time.....
