Well, it's been a quiet month down the plot, in fact I've hardly been there as been laid low with flu for a couple of weeks. Simon has been down there though to keep things ticking over and tidying things up in readiness for the winter. Harvesting of chillies has been continuing and about 10% still remain in the greenhouse, not planning to try and overwinter any this year. Plenty of seeds ready for next year. Polytunnel is empty and ready for next year. Onions and garlic are all up and not attacked by pigeons.. yet. Kale and brussel sprouts are still providing us with lots of veg and look likely to for some time to come as well.
Simon has begun to prep the big holes for the two flag poles for his hops to grow up next year, he has cleared it with the committee as well so hopefully no problems when he puts them up! Each pole is 20ft high so they will certainly be eyecatching! Next plan would be to plant some barley then his homebrewing would really be completely DIY!
Hopefully my flu is departing so will be able to get out and give Simon a hand tidying very soon and then the plans can start for next year..... :)
