Then and now

This afternoon ,in a bright spell between heavy showers, I took some photos of my completely planted up plot and also some more pics and panoramas of the site in general which show quite a contrast from the November beginnings.

top half of plot well established
planting and sowing of bottom half now complete
 
mixed lettuce is doing well
bare patches in chard bed now resown
a bit of the Mezcla leaf glut
later sowing of broad beans and lettuce coming on
dwarf beans have germinated in 6 days
soil warm to the touch when thinning and transplanting parsnips





Views from along the bottom of the plots show a lot of greenery instead of bare soil.

Wow, that's quite a good size area you have and lots of growth already.

Thanks for visiting and making a comment on my blog. Seems that your site has been invaded by darleks.

Yes Sue,
there seem to be a lot. But don't you think that they ,the blue tubs and water pipe netting supports make our new site look like a proper allotment!

It certainly looks like a proper allotment Shinny - all that it's missing are the rows of sheds and greenhouses :)

Looking good all round, lets hope the weather improves to help things along.
