I haven't been to the allotment this week. Due to my new "keep fit kick start", the evenings have been taken up with yoga, spinning, aerobics (of sorts) and body toning. Once I get underway with the fitness programme I am sure I will find a better balance between the karmic gardening and the hot studio workout.
The plot hasn't much missed me though. Apart from an overwhelming amount of weeds I meditatively removed today from around the peas, most of the plants just continues to grow.
I have to confess though I dug up the rather uneventful dwarf beans today. I don't know what happened but the seeds just didn't germinate. Poor planning meant the space I was using up was so big for just a few bean seeds I thought it best to clear it and make way for something more productive e.g. lettuces.
I have also ordered some seed potatoes from the Guardian that could possibly go in that bed. I am going to start thinking more clearly about the planning of the plot now I have calmed down and don't feel the need to plant and clear like crazy. After all the plot is for the long-term, not just one season.
