Default New allotment

Most of the seeds sulked and came up very slowly due to cold temperature and
too much rain. I m sharing this ground with my brother, and he is a very
anxious father. He got some fleece and covered pretty well everything a few
days ago for fear of frost.
He hasn't grown veggies before.

I think the beetroot, spinach, spring onions, potatoes, rocket, carrots and
stuff will be fine without a fleece, but it shows his determination to make
it work.

Remind you: My land - his work, we both buy seeds and share the harvest
this year.
