Another week gone by with very little work done on the plot due to unforeseen events and the weather, of course. However things are happening at last and it is becoming obvious that the seasons have changed and spring is not very far away.

The hens have started laying again due to the days getting longer, and things are starting to grow. The garlic is now all through and getting taller, the rhubarb gets stronger almost daily and there are signs of new life in the weeds! All the crops over wintering in the tunnel are now begining to look a lot better and will soon be ready.

I have dug over tunnel 2 and started soaking the soil ready for some early crops of beetroot, carrots and peas which I should be sowing in the next 2 weeks. I must now get on and finish digging the remaining areas of soil still to be finished. It is also time to start sowing some other crops in trays for latter.
