Back in the Dirt

Hi!
Jeff is on some nightshifts and it wasn’t a bad day out there
I couldn’t decide what I wanted to do so I thought I’d get into the garden

My zucchini patch – I intended to pull the whole thing up.
I got a few zucchinis and a heap of potatoes!! (What is it about potatoes? They just grow everywhere!)

A couple of plants still were trying to produce zucchinis so I left a couple in

I tidied everything else up, cut off the manky leaves and bedded one half down with straw

Then a quick hoe over the old potato patch

Lots of little weeds appearing. It will need covering too

Ugh… and my failed tomato patch

This is going to take forever!
I admit being quite disgruntled with it, so I ended up just ignoring it since no tomato plants wanted to take off at all

I just started yanking out weeds and then started digging up that infernal twitch

Doesn’t look like I got far does it??

I did keep digging up more potatoes tho –

The nasturtiums have taken over the compost

I had a dig about in this one!
Chokka-block full of worms!
So pleasing

I grabbed my newly made basket and did the rounds of the self seeded tomatoes.
Very cute

And yesterday’s soaps:

My oatmeal coloured aloe vera soap

Candy pink rose soap (Leftover mix round soaps with the Japanese Honeysuckle)

And the first cut of the loaves of Japanese Honeysuckle soaps

Have a great week everyone
Cheers 🙂
