Quick update!

Popped up to the plot again yesterday afternoon, to check on the beans that were planted a couple of days ago. Sadly, the wind has wreaked havoc, and the beans are really struggling against the elements.
To counter this, I'm going to have to erect some form of windbreak across the sides of the plot - a job for Monday maybe!

Elsewhere, the spuds ( First earlies ) are doing great, putting on tremendous growth. Looking forward to harvesting some.

That's all for now, but pop back soon for more from the plot.

Take care all,

TTFN.

Thats the trouble with our weather, just when you think its safe to plant things out the weather goes mad on you!

When do you pick your first earlies out of interest? I'm never sure when to have a first look...
