More seeds done

With us supposed to getting a lot of rain over the weekend after a cracking week, I though I'd get nothing done on the plot. But the weather wasn't that bad so I sneaked to the plot between the rain showers, then got some seeds sown what I've done is.

That weekend went quick

Spent a few hours on Saturday and Tuesday on the plot not much but a little, I decided to clear some of the dead flowers and weeds on the flower section. We have only had a few days of sunshine but the Soil was rock hard , anyway cleared the weeds and picked some rhubarb for the first time this year. For the first time this year I picked 10lb of it wow, still got the rest of the year to go. I also planted some gooseberry and black current bushes that I got given, I know it maybe a little late at planting them but these was going to get thrown away. So if it takes ages to get fruit from them I don't mind, I've been waiting 5 years for raspberries. I have even some growth in the greenhouse the sprouts / chillies have started to grow, going to make a start on more planting in a couple of weeks. 

Few more seeds done

Well last year it seemed we was late at sowing seeds and early the year before, now I'm thinking do I or don't I sort some seeds out. It's still 2 to 3 weeks earlier than last year if I sow the seeds now,the little voice in my head made me do sow some seeds. Well I planted 12 seeds of each into trays, then in a few more weeks I'll do some more. 

Beetroot boltardy 12. 15/4/15 Moneymaker toms 12.   15/4/15 AYR CAULIFLOWER 12. 15/4/15 Sprouts Montgomery f1 12. 15/4/15 Toms red alert 12.   15/4/15 Pointed cabbage greyhound 12.   15/4/15., this is all I've done so not a lot, give a few weeks then the greenhouse will be full. I also had to buy some compost to start the seed growing, only because my own compost has got seeds growing in it so it's hard to pick out the weeds or seeds. So I'll start growing in shop compost then transfer to own compost when big enough, I know I wasn't going to buy any but had no choice. 

I'm still eating beetroot from last year and just finished 2013 jars, so 2014 to eat just in time for 2015 beets. I'm hoping the beetroot will last only because I can't stop eating it, I go through stages I don't eat any then eat loads . 

Well more onions

That's another 6 rows put in of Stuttgarter onions still 3 rows left to do of them, then it will be about 6 rows of Sturon onions. Then that's it till winter if I plant some them. Oh I found a butterfly on the gate just resting . 

Started on the onions

Made a start today planting my onions farm well the amount I have anyway, I planted 9 rows of Turbo onions 3 sections 3 rows in each. Each section has around 80 onions in so it sound get full, think I've got about 15 more rows to do. Oh the joy of loving onions and not having to buy them from shop, need to try and sort winter onions for a change. Only done them once and have never done well, so think I'll give it a crack this winter if I don't forget.
