Mid January

Popped over for a couple of hours this afternoon. Borrowed Oliver's rotavator and dig over the top bed.

Need to make a definitive plan of action for the coming weeks.

Popped over today, cleared up a bit of minor wind damage.

Also planted my new gooseberry bushes and rhubarb plants.

Early December

Just general tidying up today, and dug over a bed and covered it with black sheets.

The garlic I planted has started to put shoots up. Not sure if this is too early, or whether I should cover them with fleece.

November

Been a little lax with my posts, so a bit of a catchup.


  • Cleared a bed ready for more gooseberry bushes.

  • Transplanted strawberry runners to a new bed.

  • Cut Down raspberry canes.

  • Took down bean supports.

  • Dug over two more beds.

  • Gave the grass the last cut of the year.

  • Planted out the garlic.

  • Built a new compost heap with pallets.
