Week 41 – Year 2
16th November – 22nd November 2009
Flood alert and bad weather hit Cumbria, southern part of Scotland, the Lake District….
We are in touch wood situation at the South West, windy and cloudy, on and off of heavy showers…
During this continue wet and windy weather…. On Tuesday caught up with a clear spell and went down to the Allotment to tidy up those bags of compost, empty to the bins and gave them some massage (add some compost maker and gave them a stir)…..
Harvest
While I was at the plot, pick up some veggie for the week… Swiss Chard doing excellent despite the foul weather… though I have got some Parsnip in fork shape, they are still sweet in taste… my Mooli Radish has a big improvement from last year’s stock, use them in my curry really yummy….
Garlic
The downpours has not affect the growth of my Garlic, they grow taller than the week last…
Onions
The same as my Winter Onions, they welcome the rain too….
Feltham First Peas
Nice to see my Feltham First peas has shown the pea tops… my disguise of sowing them with grits and pebbles do work…
Board Bean
Most of my early sown Board Beans has shot up… though there are couple gaps in between the rows, I shall fill them with my home grow seedlings in Springtime if they do remain gapping at me through the winter…
