An allotment novice clears a plot in a month, starts growing any vegetable she can think of and soon realises that she may have bitten off more than she can chew. Especially when the gluts start coming thick and fast

New growth emerging
The days are getting longer and it lifts the spirit.
While the green we see on the plot are mainly plants that have over wintered such as herbs, brassicas and strawberries there are signs of new life.
The rhubarb is poking its pink nose out of the ground, garlic shoots have pierced the soil and leaves are emerging on the raspberries.
It's a long way to the lushness of summer but it's a very welcome start.
