Gravel Boards and Woodchip layed in Polytunnel and Salad Plants planted in Raised Bed

Today me and my mum layed the Gravel boards in the Polytunnel to allow 30 inches each side of the path. I also layed half a bag of woodchip left over from last year down the path.

I also put the following in the raised bed to the right of the Greenhouse:

- 9 x Lettuce (Iceberg) 'Match' plants
- 9 x Beetroot 'Boltardy' plants
- 6 x Salad Leaves 'Winter Mix' plants
- 9 x Lettuce 'Little Gem Pearl' plants

I also had to lay fleece on the fruit trees as well as my Potatoes as their is a risk of Frost again tonight. I also put cloches on top of the salad plants which have been planted.

Allotment - Digging over by Rhubarb

Today I went down the allotment briefly for the evening and tried to once again dig where the rhubarb is but unfortunately once again hit the red ants nest so had to stop so I have now turned the soil over with the hope that they move to somewhere else. I also closed up the Greenhouse after it being a warm day.
