Allotment and Gardening blog 12th April 2020
This week has been a hetic week down on the allotment. I have so much I need to do and so little time to do it. I have got to get all my beds tidied up, potatoes in, beds planted up and lots more planted.
Last year in the Wilkos sale I bought loads of beans to plant so i’m going to try and squeeze them into as many places as possible. I’m also wanting to grow lots of flowers this year to keep the bees smiling and my plot having lots of colour.
Watch the video below to see how I got on.
I hope you have enjoyed my allotment and gardening blog for this week and taken away a lot of tips and advice. Make sure you subscribe below to keep up to date with more tips, advice and blogs.
