    at the allotment day 19

    By booyaa | June 22, 2008

    hey gang! i’ve managed to lose count of which days we’ve been to the lotty. i think with the exception of one weekend we’ve been going, just not been posting about it.

    sadly the horse tail obliterated our carrot and spring onions. we have a small row of carrots growing away. the beetroot is also doing well.

    last weekend we enjoyed a bumper crop of raspberries and there are plenty more ready for this week. the woodlice have pretty much claimed the strawberries as their own.

    we got a nice lettuce head growing, which to our surprise has not been nibbled by slugs.

    we’ve started growing a few more in pots with copper tape around them, no point hoping for continued good fortune.

    finally the best news saved for last, our taters have started to flower

    and of course when flowering begins, so can the harvesting!

    they tasted lovely, very creamy and sweet. can’t wait till we can harvest more!
