Beginning to look like a normal allotment, whatever 'normal' is....

GQT yesterday said that to plant outdoors, check for chickweed, man says if it is growing the ground is ar a decent temperature, stable and above 6-8C. None here at the moment so will wait to move out beans and other stuff, maybe, at the earliest, mid April.

Elsewhere in the plot, broadbeans are fine, also garlic and leek, some spuds are showing up, strawberries having a field day as I am moving them outside, in various places, theory being they'll spread and cover the ground, sort of weed contril

True, but I would expect our latitudes are better for hibernating over summer, unless they've got *exceptionally* strong and long-lasting sunscreen.

(Given #Edmonton's love of #garlic I'm not sure this is even a particularly desireable site for vampire nests, but as that is outside the scope of my studies I am not up on the latest vampire research. 😛)

The existing seedlings from a few weeks ago are sprouting and growing strong in the small green house. The broad beans are already quite tall. 😊
We have added some more seeds into pots. This time we have planted corns, Kohlrabi, onions and cucumbers.
Additionally we have added more garlic as they were sprouting in our kitchen. Hope it’s not too late for those ones 🤞
