Lucia’s Allotment Journey

Welcome to my channel.

My name is Lucia and this is my allotment journey.
I’m still very new to the allotment,and am still learning what and what not to do! So join me while I continue to transform my plot and try to grow some amazing veg along the way.

The Allotment is in Bloom

    Your allotment is so neat and tidy, like the entire place is awesome. You see so many with overgrown ares and people neglect them. But they should be edible and if you take the, off you should get more (corguette). Corn 🌽 could be 🦌 🐀 or 🐿️ one of the main reasons I don’t grow corn anymore. But hey the flowers look stunning 😍. Self seeded things seem to grow so well don’t they 👍. I lost a load of labels for my tomatoes. No failures but learning curves I say. Really it’s all look amazing Lucia so keep up the great work, Ali 🌞🥵🇨🇦

    Thank you! I do spend most of my time trying to keep it tidy. I’ve hit and removed the courgette like you said to do, so fingers crossed for the next lot. I’m super happy with how well the flowers are doing, I think next year I will look at doing more around the plot.🥰🌸
