Still planting away, 175 leeks today, great dibbing soil. Nice & soft & sides of the hole didn't fall in before you could throw the leek in.
May take some more piccies, but it still a load of netting!
Dug up the first spuds yesterday - the Swift. Couldn't wait any longer. Went well with the spring cabbage and home made mint sauce.
Think we had lamb with the veg!

Why so many Dave? (Beans and Leeks)?
Family, friends, neighbours, church coffee mornings. Just like growing things & I have the space to do it!
Power to your elbow, Dave!
TBH leeks I can understand as they last well in the ground and you can never tire of them, but the beans need to be picked in order to keep producing new flowers (and new beans). By my calculation you could feed the Red Army with what you've planted if you picked them hard. We tried green been chutney last year but couldn't eat it fast enough. The jury's out on freezing runner beans. I've tried salting them, with mixed results. Country Wine?
