Allotment Vegetable Growing in November 2008
Leaves and Chippings on the SiteWe're really fortunate on our site, the council drop us loads of wood chippings that are great for paths on the plot. They also deliver loads of leaves from the road sweeping and these make leafmould, of course. So onto the site where we've mountains! |
Weeds and OnionsI've some overwintering onion sets on this bed on plot 29. They're under netting to stop the dratted pigeons from pulling them for me, but the fleece is off that I got them going under. I've a lot of weeding to do, as you can see. Oh to be perfect! |
Brussels SproutsThe Brussels sprouts are doing rather well, once again under netting to keep those pigeons away. On the right you can just make out the purple Falstaff. See: How to Grow Brussels Sprouts In front, sadly, yet more weeds awaiting the hoe. |
Jim's PlotOK, I admit it. I'm jealous. I've not even started but Jim's plot is nicely dug over and weeded. An example to us all. You can go off people, you know. |
