No dig diary, 29th March 2024

You’re not going to believe this: we had a load more rain today. More than once I was forced to take shelter in a greenhouse or polytunnel to avoid the horizontal raindrops. I was watering in the polytunnel at one point at the rain was so hard that I didn’t dare leave!

There was a bit of lull this afternoon however, and I took the opportunity to finally plant out my Charlotte potatoes. Only two weeks after I planned to have it done. It was a bit unpleasant because the ground is so wet, but there are plenty of volunteer potatoes coming up so I didn’t think it was going to cause the new ones any major stress. So but for about three metres that’s one bed filled up already 😀

Hopefully I can get a lot more planting out sorted tomorrow, when the weather man has promised me on pain of death that it is going to be sunny all day.
