April 13th 2013 - Potatoes in!

It's been a long winter and a freezing start to spring. Things are looking up at last though withe temperatures in the teens. Popped down the allotment on sat morning with Ella and Georgia to plant the potatoes - Sarpo Mira, Belana and Congo (blue). 50 in total.

Plot is looking in good order. Been making good use of heated propagator at home with the following growing well:

- Brussels sprouts
- purple sprouting broccoli (summer)
- spinach
- artichokes
- parsley
- lettuce
- beetroot
- leeks
- spring onions
