    Hi Elaine I do not trust the media about anything😂. That is a great Swede, shame one rotted. Hi Elaine when you have made your compost you could try a no dig bed? Give the worms a break 😂😂👍👌❤️😁

      @nickthegardener.1120 Hi Nick. What a pong of dead swede lol. I'm still happy with what came home. I felt bad for digging it over but it was quite compacted, like the other bed I dug. There were loads of real juicy sized worms but I will make it up to them. Most of the beds are no dig and I top dress them. I'm not into double digging any more lol. 😁👍🧄🧅❤️🪱🪱🪱💪

    Crazy Elaine isn’t it. Too hot too cold. We just deal with what comes.
    Great looking Swede 😮❤ I stored 2 of ours in sand ….. they rotted 😂😂 glad I put the rest in the freezer.
    Off to the garden centre now.
    Keep warm
    Allie & Tricia ❤

      Hi Allie and Tricia. That's true. We just get on with the weather lol. I brought an iffy swede home. Stank the kitchen out....out it went lol. You will only know if something works, when you try it. Thankfully, I am pre-warned lol so I won't be doing that. I've just got to find my shoehorn to get the swede in lol. Watch yourselves at the garden centre 😉 While you're shopping, I've got a nice red lentil soup on to keep warm with. Have fun shopping. Elaine 🌱 🥶❤️

      That's the thing about garden centres, garden stuff relegated to the corner or outside and Christmas Wonderland front and centre lol. Better luck with the next one eh? 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲 🎅 🤣😂👍

    Elaine I always believe the media 😂😂😂I started my garlic today in modules to give them a little start before I plant them out,that’s if we don’t get 3 ft of snow as the weatherman said ⛄️ ❄️😂😂😂👍

    Some lovely garlic there! Wow I never thought about buying form garlic. We save ours each year

      @allotmentjoy  หลายเดือนก่อน

      @ThatBritishHomestead Hi. I usually plant shop bought but this year, I was advised to buy seed garlic. Must say, I'm quite happy with the quality, apart from one bulb of Topadrome. The bulbs from LIDL are a good size at 36p each. My own garlic wasn't that brilliant this year. I reckon the winter and wet weather didn't help. Better luck this time round lol.

      @Jimmy.Plot.41.b Thanks Jimmy. Perhaps they take people for fools. I know 'canny' you can't beat a geordie accent. Thanks for sending those JS seeds out. They are rare as rocking horse doodah lol 👍👍

    😂😂 bloody media. I think the weather people just look outside and see what we see. Raining and cold with a chance of sunny periods but we could see snow in areas 🤣🤣🤣.

    I’m putting in a bit more garlic but I need to find a spot for it that doesn’t drowned in winter. Not doing it today though it’s pouring 🌧️🌧️🌧️. Lovely coats for the kids 👍. We’re in the midst of a postal strike 🤦‍♀️ so seed sending is on hold. This bloody AI 🤖 stuff is going to be the death of us because we also have a dock strike.
    We need to look after ourselves because no one else is going to do it. Have a super week ahead Elaine and by extension Richard, Ali 🌧️🥶🇨🇦

      @myrustygarden postal strike! Hopefully it gets resolved. I have sent you something.... I make sure the dogs are kept warm. After all, they spend a lot of hours hanging around on the plot. A dock strike too! Might as well close everything down, while they're at it lol. Stay dry and carry on! I'll tell Richard too 🥶 🌧 🌦 🌂 ⛈️ ☔️ 😁👍

      @traceysallotmentNcooking I look at a very good weather watching channel on YT and he's pretty good, plus I have a weather app, that gives me by the minute weather conditions. Very precise when you're out in the rain lol. 🌧 ⛈️☀️🌤
