Mutant Parsnips

I dug up the first of my parsnips just in time for Christmas dinner. Most of them weren't that big but I did find this for legged mutant whopper!

Unfortunately the sprouts are nowhere near ready. Should have planted them much earlier. Making slow progress on the allotment digging but at least I'm getting somewhere...

Sprouts & Carrots

Now we've cleared some space by eating some of the potatoes, I've been able to put two of my brussel sprouts in at last. I planted some chinese leaf salad in between to pick as baby leaf before they use all of the 2.3 ft of space they need. The plot is now full to bursting point.


The rain seems to be helping most stuff grow. My carrots have formed a thick forest of tops.
