Week 15 - Bed EX4 Planting

We finished cultivating this lazy-bed down to a fine seedbed and sowed 4 long rows:

• Printanor Garlic (south 1/2 long row of cloves) - spring planting variety with cream coloured cloves harvested in the autumn.
• Red Sun Shallots (north 1/2 long row of bulbs) - mild flavoured red variety, ideal for salads and stores well.
• Sturon Onion (one long row of sets) - golden bulb variety with fine flavour and good storability.
• Guardsman Scallions (one long row of seeds) - very strong upright salad onion variety, especially suitable for autumn crop.
• Nantes II Carrots (one long row of seeds) - an early, small cored, medium length, blunt variety.
