All Strung Up


My red onions have matured in advance of the yellow ones (which are still firmly rooted to the ground) so before the rain came again I got them strung up.  Once the tops have dried off I will trim them back.

The garlic has been drying off for a couple of weeks and I have had a good stab at plaiting that.  Functional - but not photogenic!

    1. Do you never rest?

      Also do you start your autumn sets in modules or straight out into the ravishes of impending winter? I'll be popping around to your site to see.

    2. The autumn sets will hopefully be planted tomorrow to give them a bit of a start before einter sets in. Planting as early as possible seems to work for us,

  3. My onions and garlic are dried out in the traditional sense and are now waiting to go in the dehydrator so I can powder them!!
