Well, weather looks better for the weekend so we will be up there planting about 5o strawberries of various varieties that arrived a day or two ago.
In the meantime, here are my artichokes doing quite well thanks! The little seed leaves are yellowing because the plants don't need them anymore. The plant's proper leaves are sprouting nicely and they are doing well outside, toughening up for life on the allotment. They germinated inside and then were placed outside for two weeks in the cold encourage more chokes per plant. There is a proper term for this and it begins with v but I can't remember what it is.
I think they will go up to the allotment in a week or two when they are a bit bigger. i have to admit to being a bit proud of my little chokes.
