Challenging weather
he weather this year has made the work in the allotment quite challenging. The various salads were spared by the slugs, the sweet peas worked for the first time ever (and filled our guests' rooms with their unique smell), none of the brassicas came out and the rhubarb harvest was quite poor.
Thanks to kind friends, all the raspberries have been changed over to "Autumn Bliss" and I am still harvesting them for the house and breakfast.
But the constant rain has let the weeds sprout continuously so the compost is well stacked ! Inverleith won once again the Allotment in Bloom award as well as the Best Allotment, but don't worry, I did nothing to contribute to that.
