Day of the Brassica and other seedlings

Busy few hours down at the allotment.  Finally got the Brassica in. Red and green cabbages, cauliflowers and broccoli.



Back is aching as we had to dig over the bed again before we could start, it was dry as a bone and like rock.  Took a good hour. 
Quite a few wild rocket seedlings and Russian Tarragon just starting to show.   



All looking good but really impatient and want everything to hurry up. 
Planted out a few more of the beans which have been hardening off for a week. 

Carrots are doing well too 

Bought (I know bit of a cheat) 3 x Rhubarb, well they were a bargain 3 for £9.99 from Kenyon Hall Farm Shop.




Finally earthed up all the potatoes which took another hour and a half.




All had a good watering so hope next time will be more showing.   Beetroots very slow.  Some purple sprouting  broccoli seedlings too.
