I have just finished doing some digging getting ready for onions, carrots,and beetroot it has been dug since the autumn but the rain has put it down a bit solid it turned over very well, and should soon dry out with this wind we are getting.Another dry day but cloudy and windy better than rain.
All the best

Spring digging!?

I thought that was when you put your spade in and water spurted up :shock:

Very funny, Alan. At the moment it still looks as if this might just happen if we tried to dig!

Joking apart, the week ahead doesn't look too bad, weatherwise, so maybe we can at last get the last bit dug. And the brassicas are looking decidedly ancient, so they will come out soon and that bed will then need digging. Just hoping for some dry from overhead and not too stormy (as it's been today).

Have seen the weather for the week, and it looks as if we are in for another fairly wet week. You might be digging for a third time Codger. :)
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.
