Friday the 25th saw the last of the big planting completed. I've been gradually digging more of the front part of the plot and on Friday I got to plant it! I'd had butternut squash and sweetcorn growing in cells in the greenhouse for a few weeks so it was time to transplant them Rain was on the way for the weekend so I thought that would water them in nicely. I decided against the "three sisters" style of growing where the squash and swetcorn grow togther to make sure I understand these crops individually for the first year. The sweetcorn were planted in two blocks so I can get between them for watering. All in all I got 16 squash and 55 sweetcorn so hopefully we'll get a decent crop.
