Paddy fields?


The allotment site has a slight decline.
We have two allotments, number 1 being on the slightly higher ground.
But number two is just a bit lower, so the bottom row off allotments
are suffering with a lot of standing water.

This photo ( excuse the finger) is of the plot next to mine, ours is not 
too bad, as we had rotovated just before the rains came, 
so the soil depth is still quite high.


Lots of standing water all around the bottom of the allotment site, 
7 hours after it had stopped raining.


The good news is when we do manage to get our main crop potatoes in, this is 
where they'll be going, they should like the extra water this allotment will give them.
