Leeks


Still aching from yesterday , but up early and got on with it . 


Glad I did , because it really was quite weedy and I filled the wheelbarrow .

Very awkward because there was no space to plonk my kneeling mat . I had to stand carefully between the Leeks and reach down to pull the weeds .

Oh boy !  I am really aching now  !


So now I have done the Kale , Brussel sprouts and Chives bed .

I took out all the French Beans and planted that bed up with Lavender .

I weeded out the Leeks and Globo onions bed .

 Note - I grew the Globo onions from seed ...they are not as giant as they were supposed to be but useable . 

I know , I say it every year " I am not growing Onions next year ! I'm sticking with reliable Leeks !"





 

Two beds still to be weeded .....but that's all I can do for today .... exhausted !

Hoping for some rain to come .☁️πŸŒ₯️☁️☁️


           Ooh ....you know the season is changing when these start coming in !

  1. Maybe the onions would have grown bigger with some rain.

    1. I agree ! ...... I probably will try growing them again . We had a good heavy rain shower during the night to fill the water barrels .
