Im in a planting frenzy
Originally I was going to plant seed directly into the ground but the ground looked so rugged that I chickened out and planted rows of plugs on my windowsill. The seeds quickly germinated to my glee as this is all a first for me, I then transferred them out to a plastic covered shelf in the garden and finally into the ground. Phew I am exhausted next year they are going straight in!
My plot is under attack from every weed in the book and the nettles are from hell, they sting through your gloves.
I have planted outdoor cucumber, spinach, cabbage, lettuce and onions. My potatoes are in and I found a large rhubarb patch on the empty plot beside me which I dug up and transplanted into my growing heaven.
My potatoes are growing which is very exciting as I had serious doubts they would and my raspberries are getting flowers.
I still have loads to plant and I am realising how hard this is as if I want to grow more I have to dig more. The surrounding areas are springing up into a jungle which I will tackle with some kind of covering for now.
I cant wait to eat something from my own plot.
