Hello!
Sorry I didn’t quite make it to the blog yesterday. I went to Launceston with my cousin, Fiona who had an appointment up there and wanted a driving companion. Since I didn’t think I had done enough kilometres in a car yet this month, I jumped at the chance! haha – It was a lovely day and good to catch up with her.
Today I was keen to stay in front of the fire and crochet the day away, however, that garlic is not going to grow so well stuck in a box in my pantry… so on with the scruffy gardening clothes
I gave the patch a good dusting of blood and bone
Normally I would dig that in and wait a few days before adding some lime and going through the same process…
However, I am running a bit behind and I was feeling impatient, so just sprinkled the lime on as well before digging the lot in
I dug all this in… now to wait for a bit of rain and in a few days I’ll actually plant the garlic.
Then in a fit of enthusiasm I thought I might tackle one of the raised garden beds –
Ugh – I hate twitch
Finally I think I got the vast majority of twitch pulled out and everything dug over
I’ll cover this with a thick layer of seaweed in the next few days and hopefully that will slow the weeds down so come spring I have less to do. (I think I want to put my lettuce in this bed)
And lucky us – some new potatoes!
Hope your day is fabulous too!
Cheers!
