1. Hardening off the pampered polytunnel plants in a sheltered spot on the plot2. The strawberries won't be far off so we've been slug proofing the plants3. Three rows of swedes and three rows of parsnips, planted, watered and eagerly anticipated4. Butternut squashes planted and under cloches just in case the lovely British weather decides to get cold and bitey again.5. Strawberry flowers galore!6. Borlotti beans finally out on the plot, last year I was convinced I didn't want to grow beans but have planted broad beans, borlotti, and dwarf (yellow and purple) so really I don't know what I was going on about?
