From Wonky to urmm Not wonky

Inbetween these ongoing showers ive actually managed to get some work done on the allotment.
The work started by dismantling my previous brassica cage as it was kind of wonky and chucked together, That came down with very quickly and my masterpiece began.
I hate knotting twine it scratches and rubs and i cant stand that sensation it gives you when it scrapes against my fingers… anyway though rather windy it went up, made from 6 8ft canes and a couple of snapped canes lying around then covered with netting. Simples!
General View of the plot and things are growing weekly rather than daily.
The beans are my greatest success they are really thriving.
Salad veg hearting up now.
Thanks for reading :D

Goodness, that looks a lot of work but very rewarding. Your 'cage' looks great, nothing wonky about this one :)

Gosh my beans are huge but not a flower in sight, hope thats not a bad sign, your plot looks very good and all is doing well, hope it continues for you.... I need a frame over my strawberries, my netting is laying over mine as the supports broke in the wind last week, lol....

Your beans could teach mine a thing or two - they look fantastic.

Your re-vamped brassica cage is excellent.
