We have finally put the beans in at the allotment. They are quite late this year, having only been planted 3 weeks ago. This time last year I already had them in the ground at the beginning of June but once again the wet weather has set us back. Hopefully we will still get a decent crop despite them being a bit delayed. On the up side we should have passed all risk of frost.
The vegetables in the garden have also suffered due to the rain. I have tried seeding beetroots, carrots, parsnips, rocket and radishes. It seems, however, that too much rain is as bad as none at at and nothing has come up at all. This means I have a fair bit of space in the vegetable patch. I think I will take advantage of this and buy some mature tomato plants to fill the gaps.
