Update on now that the snow has gone.
In my last post I told you about the depressing condition of the vegetable plot being too wet to work. Well this morning I paid another visit to the plot and have come to the same conclusion that it is still too wet to start working on it.
The good news though is that some of the plots nearby have dried out enough and their holders have been able to start work on them. This is usual on our site as these plots are in a more open position and so dry out quicker than mine. Normally I can start to work my plot about a week or two after the first plots are started, this does mean that I ma always a bit late sowing and planting the early sown crops etc, but they do tend to catch up so it is not too bad on that front.
So till next time happy gardening.

Now that the snow has gone.

Now that the snow has gone from here, I decided to have a trip to the vegetable plot today to see what the ravages of winter have doen to it.
Even though it is the same every year I still felt dis heartened to see it as being more suitable for an Elephants mud wallow than as a prime price of ground on which to grow my own vegetables.
As you know I follow the practice of crop rotation in an attempt to avoid dieases taking hold. And as it it now time to start getting the ground ready for the first early potatoes you can imagine what I felt like when I saw the ars that has been designated for root crops to be under 3 inches of water with not much indication of it draining any time soon. This is one of the bif disadvantages og having a very heavy clay based soil, no matter how much effort you put into breaking up the soil, given the amount of rain and snow we have had recently it compacts again. That plus the fact that a couple of feet down it is just solid clay makes it all the more disheartening.
So it looks like I will have to leave it another week or so before starting
Till next time happy gardening.
