A Busy Day

I managed to mow the front lawn today for the first time this year. The grass on front lawn doesn't seem to grow as fast as the back lawn. I guess this is because it is in shade for most of the day. I trimmed the edges of the lawn and gave the shrubs along the border a light feed of Growmore.

I spent 3 hours on the allotment in the afternoon.

I managed to plant some more onion sets in the top bed next to the shed.

I then weeded the strawberry beds and used up some high nitrogen liquid feed that I had left over from last year. This should help to give the plants a bit of a start.

I also weeded around my Rhubarb plants and used the last of the feed on those plants. I was a little peeved to see that my rhubarb is not growing as fast as some of the other rhubarb plants on the allotments.

I also harvested some lovely Sprouting Broccoli, these have been growing all winter and it is really nice to crop the results of my hard work. Margaret was very pleased with those!
