Week 26 - Overview

Some of the plants are doing well, and others are struggling. The abundant amount of recent rain has really changed the quality of the soil, it now feels moist and healthy instead of the dry sandy conditions that we have had for over 2 months. There is now more water in the soil than we would expect for this time of year which will be a huge benefit if we get any summer weather! It feels like March or April weather for the past few weeks and it shows in the garden.

The Extensive Plot is fully cultivated and all of the cool tolerant plants are thriving, while the warm season courgettes, beans and sweetcorn are struggling.

Only one more bed to Double-Dig!

The Polycrop Plot still has 2 beds that need to be cultivated and planted.
