Autumn: season of mists and mellow fruitfulness....

I'm really making the most of my time at the allotment now, with the nights drawing in I don't have as much time there in the evenings. Though its a joy sometimes being up at the plot in the fading light. There have been some lovely pink skies this week in the evenings though I've not managed to catch any on film.
The low light makes for lovely photos and these were taken on the plot last sunday. With dark skies approaching!















The plot looks very lush. I probably did plant the courgettes, squash and plants in the main bed a bit too close together but it doesn't seem to have stopped them cropping extremely well. I will try and be a bit more organised next year. I'm already making plans now.

    Your little plot is in fine fettle - looks like you still have plenty of produce to come.

    Thanks, yes have lots of leeks, some chard, parsnips and celeriac (which I've never grown before), carrots, beetroot, some broccoli, kale and the squash. I've not harvested any sweetcorn yet its not been very good and not sure it will ripen in time but we'll see.
