bucket load of weeds

Popped up today after crap weather lately of sleet, hail, rain, teeny bit sun and freezing cold and foggy other days. The sun shone and I had the urge to get out.

The plot looks great on the surface as we already dug a few weeks ago but dig again and you get a bucket load of weeds. Very satisfying! The soil is probably too wet to dig but you have to do it when you get the chance and Easter holidays are looming so it is now or wait two weeks. The soil clung to the fork in big clumps but with some work the weed roots came out. My course on Monday had me indentifying weeds in a test so that was interesting for me.

I planted some Beetroot in the hope they may come up for some salad at some point, yum.

Rain looming so after an hour it was time to pop off again til I drag the boys out to plant our first early Potatoes.
