I haven’t been over to the allotment for a couple of weeks. The weather hasn’t been great and to be honest there’s not much to do. Ok, there’s not much to do that I‘m inclined to do. From what I can remember I still need to clear the spent squash plants and retrieve the two or three pathetic butternut squash, if they haven’t started to rot by now. The baby curly kale, winter cos and purple sprouting broccoli probably need the enviromesh taking off and covering with some net which will allow them some breathing space. I wonder if the asparagus has gone yellow yet, ready to cut down and top with some compost or manure. And then I need to dig over the rest of the beds, sort out the shed and turn over the compost heaps. I have also been reminded by several people that now’s the time to plant broad beans and there’s still the garlic bulbs I bought ages ago... I’m sat here at the computer looking outside at the rain. If I don’t think about it and I can’t see it then perhaps I can forget it for another couple of weeks.
