Tomorrow, if it's not raining too hard - go to the park and collect more leaves. I'm going to need all the leaves I can get for my new plot

I didn't intend to, but I have washed down the inside of the greenhouse with a sterilising solution that I've used since I was a lad. Turned the soil over and sunk most of the pots in the soil to act as an insulation from the worst of the frosts.

Not sure I will have much time today, so anything I do is likely to fall into the weeding and general tidying category.A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP. - Leonard Nimoy

The weather was unkind. The ground was very wet on Saturday and apart from spraying a few whitefly at the allotment (SMC oil) and tidying and nipping a few dead heads off at home nothing got done. Sunday was much, much wetter than forecast and all I managed was to remove some of the finished tomatoes in the greenhouse and discover blight on the 3 remaining plants at home, which I also removed.
Monday jobs
Expecting the ground to still be very, very wet.
