Will it be a busy weekend?

[HeyWayne]

I reckon it might.

Looking at the forecast it would appear that this weekend could potentially be my first visit to the plot this year!

I've some garden vouchers, so I'm hoping to spend them on plenty of compost and get some clearing up done on the plot - long overdue.

Might even see if LadyWayne and Bean want to come along for some fresh air.

Got much planned?

[FionaH]

Raised bed building, tip run, adding sand to the carrot bed, praying for my aubergine seeds the list goes on......

[piskieinboots]

fixing the door back onto my greenhouse, general tidy up and, hopefully, off to GC to spend some vouchers

ETA: oh and getting scratched by kittens

I'm actually starting to regret having told the kiddies we could go to the zoo....I've seen the weather too & have been itching to get a start on our new plot!!Maybe a compromise & a little bribery is on the cards.We get a full day at lottie with good kiddies Saturday...they get a trip to the zoo Sunday.
The sun has actually made a welcome peek right now,so I think our weekend is about to start with a bikeride to the park & then lottie...I shall bid you all farewell for 30 hours!!
Have a great one One & All!xx

I can't wait to start doing stuff with out allotment, but got to sort the shed thing out (going to ring bloke in a mo) and our diary is booked up with people coming to view the house. Got to keep everything immaculate until everyone's been and gone - not easy!

[HeyWayne]

Oh, and when driving off this morning, I spotted that we have snowdrops appearing (the floral type, not Mr.piskie).

How exciting.

[OverWyreGrower]

I will be hopefully planting my onions, shallots and garlic....

My ground has finally defrosted and the weather is half decent!

[Alison]

Really annoyed that the weather is looking so good, have to go and see rellies so won't get anywhere near the plot and bet it p*sses it down all next weekend when I've got nothing on!

[lumpyjumper]

Yipee! first good weather weekend when I'm not committed to something else!

Tonight going to call into GC on way home to buy two rhubarb plants, then tomorrow will plant them, together with the raspberries and gooseberries I've been waiting to plant for nearly 6 weeks!!! No frost, no snow and time to go up to the plot! Perfect!

[MaureenHall]

Was planning on going to the lottie today too but had visitors for lunch and got more arriving in another hour or so! Fingers crossed there'll be some nice days next week

Is'nt it awful, when you become a garden maniac you also become totally antisocial.

[jackie j]

YAY I have just spent a glorious 4 hours at the lottie sorted strawberry's, dug the manure in where its been sitting all winter ready to puts spuds in soon. The sun has been shinning all day. I even got the washing dry.

[tootles]

I didn't get much done today.
I had to take No.3 to a party and visit Mr T. But while I was gone my work for tomorrow arrived.......

1 ton of lovely black manure
(200 m from my plot - all up hill!!!)

[Marthaclematis]

I was in my garden ALL DAY !! I sowed the passion flower seeds I was given and some basil. Read the paper, top dressed a couple of plants in containers. Drank tea. Pruned my heathers, planted out a poppy and something else which is a perennial but I don't know what - that's going to be a surprise. I also moved some pots around and one plastic broke at the rim when I pulled it and another terracotta one smashed because my cat tipped it over. I think it must be because of the frost. Anyway the table is now out. I hope its nice again tomorrow.

[bubblewrap]

Had a good two days dug over half the lottie & sowed lots of seeds in greenhouse.
