Okie dokie… so we got back into the hothouse today and sliced off a bit of that top piece of timber so it wasn’t sitting so high.
Left the rough edge as I liked the character!
Then we had a bit of a scavenger hunt for branches to start filling with bulky materials
And yes… Flea was back. She can’t help herself. She just has to be where the action is!
I hemmed and hawed about putting in the woodchip… (Acidity?) Anyway, I went for it – a good way to fill in the cracks
I think I will layer it all in newspaper then add in the decent soil.
Have to check with my local nursery. I am assuming that all the soil is currently sodden so not sure about picking any up just yet…
And some keen animal (not chook) has been digging under the door to squeeze in and I guess get to the food we had in here for Flea.
I had to sort that out.
So… absolutely making progress… yay !
I have high hopes for the hothouse produce this season… better make sure I don’t lose momentum and really get it all together in the next week or so!
Have an awesome weekend everyone
Cheers!
this looks awesome! what a great upgrade. and keeping the live edge is the best idea.
hi flea <3
Hi Lee and thank-you! I’ve ordered some soil for Tues morning so hopefully I can get it all in and happening this week! Exciting!
Flea replied Bok Bok Bok,… 😀
Lisa, did I miss what happened to tentacular?
Tentacular is still there! Jeff pruned him back a while ago and he is still in the corner sulking haha
Actually I was debating about removing him altogether but decided to give him one more season! 🙂
Your hothouse transformation is incredible you have done so much work to improve the area I know you will reap some awesome yumminess from all your hard labor. Hope all is well with you and yours. Love that Flea who supervises.
Love from Georgia
Thank-you Linda! Its nice to have a great new project and lots of materials on hand to do it with. I have a long way to go in the garden overall but finding my motivation more on the ‘up’ which is handy!
Hope you are going well up your way!! xxx
