Time to look after the potatoes today-they were beginning to disappear beneath a lush carpet of weeds. I started to rake them, but ended up pulling most of them out by hand ( the weeds that is). Bought some organic fertiliser on the way up to the farm and gave the plants a good feed when I'd finished.
Meanwhile, Jo was putting the sweet potatoes in some bigger pots, watering the rhubarb, and sowing some swedes up at the top of our plot. We then rolled out the mesh a bit more and cut a couple of wire supports and pegs to cover over the seeds.
Ady brought over one of his giant lettuces for us to take home; have you ever seen anything like it!
We might go up on Wednesday night to check how everything's growing-hopefully England will have won and I'll be in a positive mood! Anyway, here's a picture of the ducks to finish off today-I like the ducks and their eggs make fantastic omelettes.
