My Son visited which gave me a chance to visit the plot for a short time as he was in with his Ma.
I took loads of stuff to my greenhouse tent, the majority of which is already leggy. Hopefully by deep planting in there final positions I may be able to save some of it. After watering indoors and outdoors in cold frame I decided I had enough time (about 1.5 hours) to dig over and plant up another 2 foot wide bed. After digging I planted the remainder of my Sturon onion sets along with other sets which should have been planted in the Autumn.
I now have four onion beds planted with a mixture of Autumn and spring planted onion sets. Some were planted closer and later than I would like but vegetable growing is an ongoing experiment at all times.
Here's a piccie of the four prepared and planted beds.The top two have three rows of onion sets and the bottom two have two rows of sets.
