Argian, it was nice today. Nice and warm. The best kind of Sunday. escf I've been trying to put the garden and the allotment to gw'lau for the winter, between today and the last few showers Sunday. The beans are finally picking and eating / freezing, and is the pumpkin escf that I mentioned in last A week. Not one to be kept for the county show, but we look forward to giving her a lamb curry with Cynfal Valley. As you can see from the picture below I've put cover / mulch of some sort on each allotment beds. Cloth black anti-weed on one of gw'lau on the big bed and gooseberries; humus layer on the raspberry bed; and thickness of hops on the other two, in foreground.
A number of allotment holders have been getting hops from Purple Moose Brewery in Porthmadog, and I am getting bags by Cader Ale brewery in Dolgellau, every time they brewed. Dew, he stinks! And the wasps love with him, hyd'noed in second week of November.
Wellies to've never nowhere fatha'r allotment for weeds: grasses in particular. So much of Plots untreated, no wonder escf that millions of seeds from around the place every day of the year. But I can not help myself I'm sure, by not managing the grass growing in the paths between each bed ... I'll have to pull the fingers escf of hair. The cloth weed here some help over the winter hopefully. Son route, here's what they look like at the moment. I've been in two minds to break my heart in bali where ..... The allotment association has held two working days there recently in an attempt to improve escf drainage with ditches and pipes. I went to the first, but I failed to go to second. I'm afraid that the effort as closing the gate in the wall patchy, or try to sort the fog Migneint. Who the hell thought giving allotments on a sticking!
