More plantings

Geoff and I bought some more produce from the man on the market. We planted the seedlings out. You'll see outside that we've planted some purple seedlings, 15 in all. These are kale, which should be ready early next year. Alongside are a couple of rows of chard and a few lettuce seedlings.

We've bought some finer mesh in the hope that this will be more successful in detering pests than the mesh inherited from the Trevors.

In the polytunnel, we've planted out the remaining chard. It apparently can be cut early, like salad leaves. We also bought and planted some more lettuce seedlings, some of which (but I can't remember which) are cut-and-come-again. Finally there is a row of mizuna, easily identifed by its spiky leaf.

Geoff has some onion sets. We were advised to sow these at the end of the month.
