Ive planted 4 loo rolls innards up with tomato seeds. Mum to Sox and Boo,and hens, Bramble,

Re: Sues Vegetable Diary 2012![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It has been really cold at the allotment the last couple of days. To day was worse, but I took my lunch and got some digging done. I was delighted to see the tadpoles that have hatched. I put up the little greenhouse, and put three dahlia stakes behind it, and then tied it to the stakes, because when the wind blows up there there is nothing to stop it and everything is swept away before it, so it has to be tied down. I have some tiny carrot tops showing already and in the green house I have cauliflowers started, I cant wait for it to warm up so I can start planting out. ![]() Mum to Sox and Boo,and hens, Bramble,

Re: Sues Vegetable Diary 2012Had a lovely day today. We went to Stoneleigh near Warwick to the Edible Vegetable Show. There were all sorts of gardening things, food, animals, goats, sheep, and chickens. There was a person giving a talk about chicken health. She had an enormous Brahma cockerel, and two tiny bantams which we were invited to hold. The little hen which just fitted into my hand, fell asleep as I held and stroked her. I had fun spending money on an obelisk, some metal plant supports, a beautiful bright red watering can, and black berry and gooseberry plants. Also some cane toppers. Two owls, two bees and a mouse. A really good day out.

Re: Sues Vegetable Diary 2012Wow, sounds like you had a lovely time, I wonder if it is the same show as Mrs B went to?

Re: Sues Vegetable Diary 2012![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() We spent the day doing the work. I also planted leek seeds, and sorted out my canes and dahlia stakes. It's lovely being able to stay up there almost all day. My oldest son came up with a bunch of flowers for Mothers Day, (he was in France at the weekend) and a lemon drizzle cake. Yum!

Re: Sues Vegetable Diary 2012Finally all the beds are dug over. I got the last one done today. I planted some radish's and Ive got lettuce started in the greenhouse. Now its a waiting game for the end of April and getting things planted out in May. I expect the weeds will still pop up so there will be weeding to do over the next few weeks.
