Allotment Adventures: Fairweather Gardener

I don’t know what these flowers are and they won’t last into winter but they are so pretty!

I didn’t do much on the plot this week. I did collect produce and get the green bit emptied. so I’m ready for the weekend.

2.6kgs of tomatoes, psb, crookneck squash, pardon peppers, not bad for 20 minutes work!

I also got news that the garlic is arriving this week. Which I’d forgotten about because I ordered it the day Ma knocked herself out and trauma wiped it from my brain! Also I’ve gone rogue for my garlic this year and ordered it from the Isle of Wight Garlic Farm because the garlic last year wasn’t great so new suppliers for this year.

What I can’t do is tell you what I bought but I think it was 4 bulbs of early wight because in the plot the earlier I can harvest the better. So this weekend I need to plant garlic and elephant garlic and I feel like the 2025 season starts, even though I haven’t finished 2024 and I’m not even close to being ready!
