I think my spuds are going well? Got some corn, some peas and beans going too, all new to this so no idea if they're growing well or not lol

Just finished digging the last bed today, My back garden is a 45% slope so I had to put terraces in to get some level ground, one of the beds that has been there 18 years now, finally gave up the ghost and tannanised tiber half logs holding back the earth snapped so I have to dig out the front of the bed to replace it.

 

Put some early carrot seeds in under cloches and have sown some leeks but that is it.

Anyone else think we will have a late cold snap?

I do and that's why not started yet,that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it lol

The broad beans in Terry's pictures have a lot of flowers on them for the time of year, I have had them with early flowers before but never early beans as we normally get a run of cold northerly winds sometime in April and all the flowers drop off.

 

Last year we had a late spring but by june everything had caught up, sometimes it pays to hold back till the ground warms a little.

there are a few on the plot who have banged some early spuds in but we haven't as of yet, just getting things going really in the greenhouse, a few have put peas in as well, just holding back a tad in case of a frost :thumbs:

Whats the best things to plant now lads.

Parsnip, early carrots, leeks, radish can all be sown outdoors now. But there is no harm in waiting a few weeks or so, it will do no harm and they usually catch up the early sown stuff.
