Last week we pulled out all of the broccolli and cabbage plants that had gone to seed over the holidays, making way for a whole lot more planting for the summer months. First up, and completed this lunchtime, was a bean ‘tunnel’. We have found some beans that will hopefully grow quickly (before the term is out), and the tunnel of stakes will mean that we can crawl through the inside of the beans.
We also checked on progress on the seeds and cuttings that we planted into pots last term, in preparation for the upcoming school market night. They are looking so good that we had to split the sunflowers so they have more room to grow, and will need to stake them. Speaking of staking, we also staked some peas that hade had dififculty finding the wire on the fence behind them.
What a lot of progress made on a lovely spring day.
