May Bank Holiday Update

A mixture of warm sunshine and heavy rain has created the ideal conditions for fast and healthy growth at Lottie Plot Four. Over the last few days we have started to plant out bedding plants and annual veg plants that we have been growing from seed in the greenhouse. Yesterday we planted out 40 sweetcorn plants in a block. Sweetcorn must be planted in this pattern to allow for pollentation by wind. The potatoes are doing well and the first earlies are just starting to flower. Hopefully this is a sign that it will not be long before we are eating tasty new potatoes.
