Saturday and Sunday were both miserable days remaining cloudy with outbreaks of light rain on and off throughout Saturday. Sunday was drier and milder but once again the clouds never lifted all day.
At least the rain of the last few days should mean that our recently planted winter onions should be able to manage without any watering. It’s not that we’ve had much rain but with the dull overhead conditions the top layer of soil won’t be drying out too quickly.
The plot has suddenly gone from that plentiful supply of summer and early autumn into a much more conservative mode. Crops are suddenly starting to grow much slower. I thought a few days ago these broccoli, Green Magic, would be ready for the pot by now.
That’s what would happen in the height of summer but not now, their progress is much slower. Something to look forward for next week perhaps.
