Let's Get Plotting: 3/2/08 - 3/9/08

A First Timer's Ramblings About The Joys Of Allotmenteering In Northampton. Sunday, March 2, 2008. Long Time. No See. I know there is still a fair bit of grass to get rid of, but my idea is to build some raised beds to stand on the grass for this year and then clear it next winter. Being the first year, I don't expect 100% clearance as it is only me doing the work, and being in my salad years, I want to stay healthy enough to enjoy what I do manage to grow.

Let's Get Plotting: Glorious Weather

http://ginsplot.blogspot.com/2008/04/glorious-weather.html

A First Timer's Ramblings About The Joys Of Allotmenteering In Northampton. Tuesday, April 1, 2008. Wasn't Sunday a beautiful day, weather wise. Unfortunately, not spent up the allotment, as I was on shopping duty. However, I didn't leave the allotment out of my thoughts entirely, because I happened upon the greatest innovation of the 21st century! The 99p store in Northampton! As well as sowing, spring onions 'white lisbon. Beetroot 'soloist', parsnips 'tender and true', scorzonera. Trail of tears', and...

A First Timer's Ramblings About The Joys Of Allotmenteering In Northampton. Saturday, November 3, 2007. My First Day - November 1st 2007. I've got the key to the gate, a boot full of tools, and the enthusiasm of a teenager! Now all I need is to remember where the plot is. After looking it over I was pleasantly surprised to find several plants already in existance:. Rosemary : Aniseed : Mint : Sage. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Before and After - Not Long Now. My next project, the strawberry patch! Now I c...

A First Timer's Ramblings About The Joys Of Allotmenteering In Northampton. Wednesday, November 28, 2007. Better Late Than Never. I'm back writing later than I thought, as with prior arrangements, weather and any excuse I can think of, I haven't had time to write about what has been happening, or in reality what hasn't been happening. I took the dogs up with me for conversation, but all they wanted to do was guard my shed and wander aimlessly.(See side picture). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Those Lovely C...

Hungover, and not looking my spectacular best, I walked up to the allotment this am (Didn't dare drive, as it was still swishing around inside me) I looked like old father time, albeit with an Azada and not a scythe over my shoulder. It's beginning to look alot like Christmas.sorry, wrong blog! Jeruselem Artichokes : Globe Artichokes : Cauliflower : Summer Cabbage : Broad Beans :...

Let's Get Plotting: Nice Weather For Potting

http://ginsplot.blogspot.com/2008/04/nice-weather-for-potting.html

A First Timer's Ramblings About The Joys Of Allotmenteering In Northampton. Monday, April 7, 2008. Nice Weather For Potting. I think they will survive, as will the broad beans, but wrapped fleece around the supports just in case there was another flurry. My problem now is trying to arrange my plot visits around varying shifts, so it will be fun to see how that plays out. With the longer evenings and the better weather, I'm looking forward to spending more and more time up there. One tray of many. French ...

Let's Get Plotting: 3/23/08 - 3/30/08

http://ginsplot.blogspot.com/2008_03_23_archive.html

A First Timer's Ramblings About The Joys Of Allotmenteering In Northampton. Tuesday, March 25, 2008. You can guess what happened next. Went up the allotment and low and behold, some theivin' git has broken into my shed and nicked the drill. When I first took on the allotment, the shed wasn't secure so I put a new lock on the door and purposely knackered the screw heads so they couldn't be unscrewed. There is still a wilderness behind the shed, but that will get cleared up in time. One tray of many. Now I...
