Re: Allotments
Got some fruit bushes from Lidl and Aldi, quite cheap and they seem to be doing well after an initial repot.. More Raspberries, a couple of redcurrents (the one I planted late last year has been rabbited so not sure if it'll survive) some more blackberries (thornless) some red gooseberries and finally for a small section that we'll dig over with some peat free compost to lower the PH level some cranberries and blueberries..
Everything is late this year due to the weather/cold.. We've though managed to chit the potatoes and they'll go in sometime mid/late march, got Gherkins, squash (various), celery, aubergine and tomatoes in the seed trays, did try a pack of strawberry seeds off ebay but none have come up, got a 2nd pack in the freezer so it might boost the germination if not will get some decent roots from somehere..
Everything else will be direct to soil so as soon as the frosts are gone I'll be busy
