Thank you for your allotment dairy. We’ve had an allotment in Marple, Stockport for 5 years. We can relate to what’s happening on your plots. The weather is similar here, but perhaps you are just a little more favoured, down on the Cheshire Plain. But we can’t grow carrots at all. Strawberries and potatoes are our star crops. Keep up the good work with the website, it’s very much enjoyed.

Me too with the caterpillar, and being both alergic and scared of them they had a field day on my nasturtium and radish. I sprayed with soapy water but although it got nasty with the caterpillars it also turned the leaves brown..:(

Agree about the caterpillars never had it so bad my sprouts have been completly shreded despite having covered with nets which ususaly keeps the buterflies at bay.
