That new fence looks quite strong. I'm only surprised that you put the posts straight into concrete. That is certainly better than putting them directly in the soil. But I'd always thought that the recommended way to go is to use metal supports to keep the posts free of rotting and corrosion. For my own fence, constructed back in 2014, I used the type H supports, which I found quite easy to use.
I would have loved to use metal supports, however after testing one in this really soft and sandy soil, I decided on concrete, and let me tell you a lot of it to make the post stable.
Wow pcclark you have done an awful lot of work on your garden already! It looks like a lovely sized garden too, the length of it makes it great for sectioning into different areas and it looks like you have done a great job with it so far!
A bit of a progress report, six fence panels in now, two Apple trees, a Plum, another Apple tomorrow, a Blackcurrant bush and a Gooseberry bush, going to sink that sleeper in at the front of polytunnel, and I am progressing slowly with the bark footpath, (B&Q timbers have warped) never mind. not a great deal growing in the tunnel because I took lots into the house to avoid frost, as I ran out of paraffin, and could not find any due to everywhere being on lock down, I'll just keep on digging.
Not been able to post for a while, I woke up one morning and couldn't see out of my left eye, turns out I had a detached Retina, had an emergency operation to laser it back on, they insert a CO2 Gas bubble behind your eyeball to assist the repair, my sight is now about 80% of what it was, been told to rest up. Weeds are growing in my veg garden.
This patch was the first area I turned over to look at the soil, due to my eye operation it got a little neglected for 3 weeks, I have just about cleared it, and found my Asparagus, I think there are six showing out of 12 planted, those other Veg are Swedes, further up are cauliflower and Brussel sprouts.
