Had some pot leeks given me this week. They have only just been potted up into John Innes 2 mix so they still look a little floppy and worse for wear. |
| The new 'Kibby' pot leek from John Soulsby. Should be interesting to see how it performs. |
 |
| Pendle have been potted on again and are just starting to touch the lights- will have to move them up next week. |
 |
| Onions also looking good in the JI 2 mix. I think the added Antagon is doing its job. |
 |
| A few sprouts 'Bosworth' for an early picking. Got some crispus to sow soon to follow on. |
 |
| Dutchman cabbage destined for the plot.... |
 |
| A few xanth cuttings- struggling to got enough this year but had some stock from a couple of friends so thanks go out to them! |
 |
| The weather's been superb today just like spring should be! These guys know how to time their arrival alright! |
 |
| Planted the first lot of spuds today. First early 'Lady Christl'. All I do is nestle them in the soil and then throw a covering of compost/leafmould over them. As they grow they will get whatever I can lay my hands on: grass cuttings, straw, compost etc. |
 |
| Planting some Hative di niort outside in the beds this morning. I planted 40 in this bed for now. |
 |
| All they've had is fish blood and bone then myccorhizal fungi applied to the planting hole. A good watering then mulched with straw- done! Next week's a busy week so i might not get as many posts on as i'd like but will certainly try! STAY TUNED... |
