Just an update from Monday's broadcast, I was down at the plot with my old mate "Lard" and thought I'd illustrate my various comments a bit more.
My "Dustbin Spuds" are through and I'll add some more compost in a couple of days.
I've started the "Parsley Project".
The 4 rows of seeds are, from the left,
1) seeds kept in the fridge for a week,
2) Boiling water poured in the drill,
3) The Captain's wee poured on the seeds,
4) just normal seeds.
I've got my first Strawberry flower!
And in the final picture, 36 slabs!!!
This weekend I intend to get my Brassica cage ready weather permitting.

yes, the dustbin spuds are great fun. I found it a bit difficult to make sure they are watered properly. The water just tended to run down the inside of the bin and out the bottom and all the compost in the middle was bone dry. I try to spend more time and add a pint at a time about every 30 seconds it tends to soak in better but it takes ages.
