First Early Duke of York Spuds


Well today i spent most of the day on the allotment and it started really well.
i pulled 4 of my first early potatoes for tea and i got 3 1/2 lb of them just look how lovely they are so i cant wait to have them with my slow cooked beef and onions.
to replace the spuds i planted Jackolantern Pumpkins (ready for october) and radish and also some mustard plant.
then i weeded around my fruit and put weed suppressant down and then planted three squashes through them then i weeded the end of the bed and planted onions, mustard and my spare sweetcorn. then i planted out my Leeks and i had double what i needed so ill donate some to my mate who runs the local cubs.
lastly i weeded behind my greenhouse and planted spring onions there.
other than potting on the chillies and other tomatoes i had a little rest then came home to start our fresh potato meal.
