Saturday saw the fantastic weather of the last few days come to an end and it was the first time for 5 days that I didn't record any bright sunshine hours. With the lack of sunshine it also meant a drop in temperatures and rather than high teens we didn't even manage double figures.
Some of the after effects of last winter are starting to come to light. On the plot we lost most of our overwintering brassicas. We do have some kale plants which have survived but are rather small. We lost most of our cauliflowers but some have survived and I think I'll risk leaving them for now and hope that a feed will boost them and give us some goods heads for around May time.

We usually rely on Sweet Williams for a plentiful supply of cut flowers and a bright and cheerful display on the plot. It would be true to say that I don't think they've over wintered too well.
