Jeff liberated some lettuce leaves from the bins behind the supermarket!! :O
That might be a wee bit dodgy but the girls are loving it!
I am probably going to have ‘Hay Regret’ but I haven’t been able to get the straw and haven’t gotten around to getting seaweed in the quantities I want.
Its not going on the garden, but wanted to slow the grass between the beds.
Basically we can’t mow or whippersnip when the pumpkins are running all about the place.
I spent a good portion of the afternoon rearranging the pumpkin runners to get a layer of newspaper down then bulked it up with the hay
Its all been given a good soaking too – I know Tasmania… if I didn’t the wind would get up and blow this across the neighbours paddock!
Anyway, it was a grand start. I have ideas that the whole garden will be under hay/straw and newspaper…
Seems a lot of work when there is only one pollinated pumpkin so far! (Still… I am proud of it anyway haha)
Got plenty of lovely beetroot too! Will be time to cook some more in the near future!
That patch of Black Russian Tomato laterals is going fabulously! There are a lot of little tomatoes started.
I spent a lot of time with my tomatoes today too – cutting off the excess foliage and tying bits up – trying to make sense of the tangle I seem to have!
This raised patch is a hodgepodge of tomatoes. I cut out a lot of leaves from here too… but they really need tying up in the near future
My two dollar tomato plants have been a bit neglected and dwarfed by lemon balm, weeds and so on.
Attended to them as well to give them a chance.
All in all… along with a bit of weeding here and there its been fairly productive today!
Time to put my feet up I reckon!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
Cheers!
