September Bliss – year 3
September 2010
There are always jobs when there is a plot ….. I mean allotment plot….
Trench
Bed number 10 has been dug out a trench by my loving JCB for composting…. well prepare for my three sisters planting in the coming new year……
Potato
This is the month to finish digging out all the main crop potatoes…. I have store them in sacks in the garage… not too bad this year and expected the stock will last till next Spring…
Pumpkins & Spaghetti Squashes
The Spaghetti Squashes and Pumpkins are looking good… lots of pumpkin flowers and those tuned into pumpkins are pumping up even though mines are mini pumpkins origin…. Suddenly the Spaghetti Squashes plants are growing up and up and I have a few mounts of them in my beds…..
Wild Patch
My wild flower patch has its height of showing off the full colour…. notice some lodgers are happy at my provided lodging place…. (frogs in my pond)
Home sown & Home grown
I have sown some more Pak Choy, Spring Cabbages and winter onions & shallots at home and they are now ready to plant out at my plot….
My must Chilli plants again produce lots of Chilli and this is the time for them turn into reddish colour…
View at the plot
At the end of this month, I have planted out Bed number 9 with winter onions, shallots, Pak Choy, Spring cabbages and Mooli radish….
Another great beauty at my plot are the Raspberry plants, the autumn fruiting one are keep on producing juicy berries… made lots of jams and coulis….
The new trial… Globe Artichoke is taking on fine and looking for my next year’s crop… Fennel plants are successful growing at my plot this year although I have planted them late and expected a none result…

Looks fantastic,with plenty of produce. We didn’t have much luck with the carrots this year and the cabbage butterflies managed to get through the defences and we lost most greens except 3 sprout plants. Good to see Bernard hasn’t lost his old skills.
