Pea net

Following the second dig of bed two which took 3 goes and thats not including the first dig to clear the surface grass. I managed to plant out a gutter full of peas which I errected a 22mm net to support using some batton and a bamboo Caine across the top.
The allotment is without a tap as this is disconnected each winter and yet to be reconnected, so I hope the gods will help out until such times. I am now going to focus on bed 3 which I will raise 6 inches with kickboards and this will become a no dig bed. I will add a layer of compost, several layers of newspaper, then alternate layers of compost and manure to fill the 6 inch.
I'll post the pics and results.
