However Saturday dawned fine and sunny so we managd a full day's pottering and got the following done (long boring list I'm afraid).
- planted the reamining broad bean plants
- dug and weeeded another small bed
- sowed 3 types of carrots - Giant Red, Large ????, Large 1/2 Long into the small bed
- sowed 2 types of beetroot - White and Bolthardy in to the small bed
- MJC started digging another large bed and put woodchips on the paths - very professional looking!!
- planted the horseradish next to the artichokes
- weeded what was the strawberry bed and rescued another 3 plants from the clutches of the couch grass
- cleared around the artichokes and one of the blackcurrant bushes
- mulched the new red gooseberry plant and the cleared blackcurrant bushes
- installed the 'Greencone'
Monday we went up for a visit with our next door neighbours to show them our vegetable 'kingdom' but we didn't really have time for any serious digging.
Just wish I had the rest of the week off as the weather's supposed to be lovely....sigh!
