Tuesday
This is the first day I have had a chance to get some work done, after all the snow we have had recently. I spent about one and a half hours tidying up and pulling out some of the weeds that have just started growing again. I managed to sow some very early "Nantes" carrots in a large container, where they will remain until they are edible. I covered the whole thing with fleece to prevent frost damage.

Wednesday
Today I planted some onion sets, in an onion bed that I established last November, by planting some Japanese over winter onion sets that have been coming along nicely ever since.
I also dug in some beautiful compost from the compost bin That has been rotting down over the whole year and should kick start the plants that I grow here in this bed.
