14 October

Put some onion sets in on top and bottom allotment - Red Electric.
Started digging up all the raspberries on top allotment. They didn't give me much this year and I've got plenty on the bottom allotment so it's time to make way for other crops on the space they take up. It will also make it easier to manage the weeds on the side between my allotment and the old guy next to me and also I want to try and reduce the bindweed that creeps in at the bottom of the plot. I've got all winter to tackle it - got to have a project! Before:
After:
Got a bonfire to light some time this month!

7 October

Decided to get all the pumpkins due to potential frost. Really pleased with the harvest:
Got a few sweetcorn after all and loads of butternut squash - not particularly large but tasty!
