Friday's update

Went to allotment on Friday with a couple of bags of grass clippings, to do a little mulching and found out how things are getting on... the potatoes are coming through, and we have a spectacular crop of dandelions on the uncultivated half of the plot. Something like a dozen plants per square foot, unsurprising looking at the field next door.

So, I then went to get a giant size bottle of roundup and sprayed the lot, will be interesting to see how it does. Quite a lot had gone to seed, so will be repeating at least once...

Onions etc. doing well - now need to dig plots for the leeks, squash and sweetcorn.
