Up early to the allotment to meet Howard. We’ll water and feed with seaweed and comfrey and sow morning glory. We are late but the scented sweetpeas they’ll replace were a little sluggish at the start.
Speaking of which, we keep discovering extra-large leopard slugs in and around the tipis. Almost as though they’re wandering through the allotment, laying waste to plants in their wake. Howard uncovers the corpse of a courgette looking like it’s been attacked with an ice-cream scoop.
