Yesterday evening, we went down the allotment. I had some more shallot sets that wanted to be planted - Red Sun and now that makes 4 beds full (one onion, one onion and roots, one with Japanese radish things (going to seed which i want to collect) and garlic, and one with spuds and salads). One bed has some overwintered broad beans, now in flower.
Last night, I sowed in an L shaped bed, some Red Epicure and Masterpiece Longpod broad beans plus a short row of Meteor peas.
Now wondering where the rest of the potatoes (first, second and main), the brassicas that are starting to germinate in rootrainers, the two gutters of legumes, the flowers, the leeks, the onion seedlings, the this that and the other - where are they going to go? I suppose with changing to the bed system, things can be grown more intensively and also if we get our act together on successional crops and interplanting, the season could be very productive.
