Radish Christmas

Planted two half rows of radish by the peas. One row of German Giant, the other of French Breakfast. Between the half rows in went tow very short rows of the French Breakfast.

They should all be ready by Christmas.

Potatoes in the patch.


Brassica (broccoli and cauliflower) in the patch.


A small clump of garlic in the patch.

More Lettuces

One of the lettuces in the patch died. The others are doing well. The Paris White Cos that had been growing in pots was transplanted into the patch. With some luck and good weather there'll be a supply of lettuce leaves soon.

Note the 3 rows of lettuces in the back and 2 rows of cos at the front (and looking rather sad). Behind the lettuces are leeks.

Weedy Carrots

Gardening time has been spent removing every last weed from the carrot beds. In the gaps in the rows were planted more seeds of the appropriate kinds.

The rows now look like professional ones. All straight with good spaces between most carrots. The clumps and bare patches were probably due to the cats - who spent the evening watching the weeding!

Squashed Butternut

From the green room to the garden... Done!

Blasted snow

The cold blast and snow have confused the onions. Several started to flower. A. Ee tray of Italian long keeper has been down in an effort to recover the season.
