Time to make those plans

Home/2019/December (Page 4)

Carrying on from yesterdays blog of making your list for your seeds it’s also time to make those plans.

When I say it’s time to make those plans you need to get yourself a pencil and paper. Get drawing your plot of how it looks like now. Then draw a plan of how you would like it to look next year.

Draw all your garden beds, garden shed, poly tunnels and greenhouse. Then draw what crops you would like to plant where.

When putting where your crops would like to be remember about companion planting and also think about where you planted crops last year and the year before. It is best to use some where they have not been for the last 2-3 years.

I love making a plan of what I want to do. Who else makes plans of the allotment and task lists?

Time to make those seed lists

Home/2019/December (Page 4)

It’s now December and before you know it next year will soon be here. With how fast the year passes now it’s time to start making those seed lists.

By making those lists I mean your seed lists. Do you know what you are growing next year? If not look through magazines and garden centres. This will give you an idea of the things you want to grow.

Why not have a look on facebook groups and online see what other people have grown. One thing I like to do each year is to try something new. Try growing something you have never grown before and see how you get on. It could be something totally new, or a fruit or vegetable that you have grown but with a difference like white beetroot or even purple carrots.

It’s interesting to try something that you would never be able to buy in the supermarket. These are somethime the best varieties as the supermarkets only sell the things that you would want to buy – not crazy varieties which people would not often try.

What are you going to try this year? It’s now time to start making those seed lists!
