Here we go again

The snow seems to be hanging around for ever in Sheffield but there's signs of soil showing now. 


Garlic showing through like snowdrops!


And a bit of Chitting underway.  First earlies, Maris Bard, and second Earlies, Nicola, which did so well last year.  Not sure exactly where I'm going to plant them this year the third year of crop rotation after which I can return to the first site again - apparently.

Still not too sure about this chitting game.  Tried it in the house last year but I think it's a bit too warm.  The 'books' say greenhouse so that's what I'm going with.  As long as their isn't a frost - apparently.

(Note to self - Maris in the distance, Nicola closer - in the egg boxes)
