Huge effort by all to get our 1.5 ton of compost/manure on the beds. Scrumptious morning tea as a reward. The beds are now bursting with life as the new soil settles in.
Plantings of sugar snap peas, spinach and climbing beans have all gone in.
JOBS: Seedlings- some seedlings have started in trays but again broccoli been eaten by rats, Need to work out a cover for the trays and get a second crop going.
Mulch- new soil needs new layer of mulch (now kept in silver bins in the cage due to rats
Staking- beds 5/6 need some new trellises for the pea crop
Clearing out- tomato beds need clearing out and prepped for peas and winter crops
Green eco mustard crop planted on old tomato beds to fumigate them form nematodes
