Feeling Warmer

Greenslate has been a cold place to work so far, but today that trend changed. It had the feeling of a spring day with birds singing away in the hedgerows.

I finished off planting out a garlic bed that Roger and I started the other day and felt so carried away with the warmth that I went on to sow a couple of rows of broad beans. The soil was dry enough to work up a nice tilth.

The poly tunnel reached 15°C so I started to water the very dry beds to see if there are any weeds that want to germinate before we get sowing and planting.

I realise it won’t last but today felt really great and I cannot wait to get into spring proper when it does come.
