Broad beans and sweet peas

The broad bean strategy in Y3 is more sophisticated than ever before.

Planting. In batches of 10, germinating on warm window-sill and the transferred to greenhouse before eventually into the ground.  I can sense the slugs lying around at the side of the plot just waiting for it to all kick off (do they lick the lips?  I imagine so)

Here's' the first batch in the greenhouse.  Underneath are the sweet peas, 3 varieties - Rosy Frills, Gwendoline and Beaujolais - there's 5 seeds in each of those pots.  Not quite sure the photo is a little blurred - blame the iPhone 5C.  (Mmm, "5C" - "5 seeds")

Potatoes Chitting in the distance, not that well actually. I think it may be a little too cold

More garlic

It's official - I'm addicted to growing garlic.  Another row in today, this time Solent Wight.  That's probably enough now.
