No dig diary, 25th May 2024
Having spent yesterday composting new beds, I decided today was the day that I should catch up with the greenhouses. There’s garlic in part of the bed in one and nothing in the other but potted strawberries, so neither was … Continue reading
Ok, so everything is starting to get a bit crowded now
I desperately need to start planting more out, but the weather has just been so rubbish…
No dig diary, 24th May 2024
Since I now have the concrete pad removed from the veggie plot I can at last finish the new beds that I started back in February. I extended them to line up with the rest of the beds (although they … Continue reading

Yay! More weeding today! This time the polytunnel and Frankenstein’s greenhouse thanks to the day being distinctly cooler. Given that these are covered structures and that I’ve weeded them twice already this year I don’t entirely understand where the weeds … Continue reading

I completed the last bit of outdoor weeding today, at long last. And in fact then completed the spreading of compost on the main veggie plot in the bed I had just weeded. I really should have got that done … Continue reading

More planting out today, mostly lettuces and salad onions that I don’t need filling up the greenhouse any more. Time for them to be in the ground outside. Most of the tomatoes, the aubergines and peppers/chiles were potted on, too. … Continue reading

Rain, rain and more rain was the forecast for today, but I was able to get out early doors and finish spreading compost on the new flower bed and dump a couple of barrow loads on a veggie bed that … Continue reading

Thanks to my wife weeding yesterday I ended up with one more bed to spread compost on, alongside Frankenstein’s greenhouse. That didn’t take a huge amount however, so first I cleared the weeds from half of another bed and covered … Continue reading
