We use to drive up to near Lancaster for their Mammoth cabbages and other vegetable plants. I gave one of their giant cabbages I grew to a man on the next allotment and he won first prize in an horticultural show. It sounds like you are very well organized and you are going to have a very fruitful year in the vegetables plot and polytunnel.

I am sure they will get very high.

I usually plant onion sets in March. But it all depends on the weather. March often comes in like a lamb and goes out like a lion. I wouldn't mind another polytunnel🤔?

I walked six miles today. Met a few people out walking in the fine weather. Small and fresh vegetables are the nicest.
