The new raised beds in the second tunnel need filling and today one of them was. It was filled with a mix of allotment compost and very well rotted manure which will make for a tremendous growing medium for the planed crop. Tomatoes!!!!
Two rows of staggered canes were tied to tension wires running the length of the tunnel. Eighteen canes fitted the bed. The three beds will give us room for about 60 plants. Hopefully the farmer will fill the trailer again this week so I can fill the next bed.

Wow that tunnel looks great, so much prime growing space! :)
Lovely blog by the way!
Thanks for you comments Paul and Melanie. We have two home made tunnels on one of our plots and they give us plenty of scope for stretching the season.
