Phew! Finished moving the horizontal roof beams to 3in down to go level with the beam, now to stretch the plastic sheet.

Resolved the watering set up, found a 3way attachment, one inlet 2 outlet so now can use the spray hose AND the nozzle at the same time. :0)

Beans seem contented if not actually happy, while the broadbeans carry on regardless of the weather.

Strawberries are growing nicely and are tasty! Courgette flowering, cauli and cabbage and carrots getting on, leeks and garlic also.

Break time now, too hot under the sunshine so am moving under the willow.

Some high haze to the north, unpleasantly breezy and quite nippy on the way to the plot.

Various Beans outside: trying to keep alive despite the night cold temperatures. Broadbeans going nicely, cabbage and cauliflower cranking on but slow. Strawberries growing but not as yet ripening, while indoors, ripening and delicious.

One courgette out of 8 seeds is now flowering, tomatoes are growing slow, a wood pigeon is drinking at the pond.

One of three tobacco seedlings seems to have survived, two others didn't, have some 30 others in the flat, where peppers planted a month ago have sprouted and are about to be planted in the greenhouse.

Need to bring the trimmer as weeds are on the attack.

Greenhouse, courgettes, tomatoes and carrots, geranium.

Planted 20 odd spuds, all from a supermarket bag I'd forgotten I had couple months ago. All sprouted rootlets. Now the waiting game.

Grapes have started green shoots, most of the cuttings have taken. Weirdly, broadbeans are flowering but they are hardly 5 in tall . .. strawberries also fruiting though some have perished .

The rest growing in pots in the greenhouse.

Worked on the pond edges, lined the sides halfway down using three cloth pots, the sort used to move treelings about, cut lengthwise, the idea is to cover the plastic and maybe a frog will choose the place for froglets. Also filled the gaps between stones with stone scalping kindly donated by the plotter next door.

Pond, no frogs yet.
A bath full of strawberries.

Fill the jar the rest of the way with water, cap securely and give it a good shake. Let these rest for at least 24 hours and enjoy! Refrigerate after the first day and they'll last a good long time.

* The vinegar mellows the heat of the habaneros but these are still pretty spicy. If that's not your thing you could reduce the number of peppers or use something more mild like a jalapeño or a bell pepper.

Beginning to look like a normal allotment, whatever 'normal' is....

GQT yesterday said that to plant outdoors, check for chickweed, man says if it is growing the ground is ar a decent temperature, stable and above 6-8C. None here at the moment so will wait to move out beans and other stuff, maybe, at the earliest, mid April.

Elsewhere in the plot, broadbeans are fine, also garlic and leek, some spuds are showing up, strawberries having a field day as I am moving them outside, in various places, theory being they'll spread and cover the ground, sort of weed contril

Normal plot bed to be sown.
