Orto di Casa Cecconi

My first allotment, and then one thing leading to another…

What I won't do for my veg…

Last night I arrived on the plot with the mission to sow some more seeds, as I do not have much time to get the next generation of veg ready to plant out.

However, on opening the shed I realised I had no working clothes! Going home and back was out of the question: too tired I would have succumbed to the lure of the sofa… so I looked around for inspiration… and decided to don a bin bag!

Not quite the style, but I was sitting in the greenhouse so no shocked neighbours either ðŸ™‚

And, though not comfortable, it was worthwhile: I sowed salad, brassicas, beans and peas of several species besides carrots.

I hope to get better results especially with brassica by not sowing directly in the ground. Time will tell.
