Shopping
After John finished work yesterday we popped out to pick up a few things. We were hoping to get some more grow bags and some seed potatoes for the new patch but unfortunately there were no potatoes to be found (as yet.) We did get more sheeting which we seem to use alot of but it does help to keep the weeds down. The whole allotment is looking fantastic and green, you could just sit and look at it all day long if there wasnt so much to do.
Seeds, Re-Potting and Paths
After a good few trips to get wood chips to make a path (mostly by John) the new potato patch is looking great and is now just waiting for the seeds to be found. I moved a couple of plants (not sure if they're chillis or peppers) to bigger pots, planted a few more runner beans and cleaned up the top greenhouse a bit. Its funny that a few days ago greenhouse 1 was looking slightly sparse and now its full again. I can see that there may be a few new patches to be dug although some new veggies can go in as older plants are pulled up.
Happy
This week has been lovely and the more I do and learn the more I appreciate the food that has come out of lotty and the amount of work involved in producing . Iv found something that I enjoy and love I can get lost in what im doing. One of that nicest parts is when John and I stand together cuddling and look down the allotment at everything we've done!
