Checking Growth.

I also did some checking of growth while at the allotment today.

It has been a hard week up there, what with the corn and now the runner beans.

I’m sure I pelleted for slugs, but I may not have had time. It could also have been the rain that washed them away. I don’t get time to go up the allotment every night as I would like to water and check on things.

I expect the slugs waited until the rain stopped and then immediately popped out for a slap up meal on my allotment. I lost a complete wigwam of runner beans (above). Before the slugs they looked like this:

Luckily the other two wigwams were OK. Though I have now pelleted and salted a few of the fat greedy slugs lazing in the sun. 🙁
