Allotment, Weeding and feeding

I had a busy day today,

1. I laid out and set the first early potatoes in a tray to chit. I will set the later varieties out next week.
2. I fed the fruit bushes with some fish/blood/ bone fertiliser that I had not used for about 5 years.
3. I removed and used a couple of the last celeriac roots. I composted the rest.
4. The weeds are growing fast and I hoed around the fruit bushes as I was feeding them.

Jobs to do.

• Fill in the gaps on the Broad bean bed as I have lost a few plants over the Winter to the bad weather.
• Take out the last of the finished cabbages and brassicas, unfortunately some of the cabbages bolted very quickly and are now only good for compost.
• Plant onion sets.
• Dig a bean trench.

A very cold overcast day. OK for working, but plenty of layers of clothes were needed.
