Been forking again today, grass poked full of holes, used 3 bags of top dressing to cover and seed sown too. Well watered in by the rain. Managed to sort out turning one compost bin into the next, then went out to get some rock dust to help improve veg bed, like rick van man on you tube.
Top dressing did make everything a bit messy, brushed it in well, but still looks like a dirty lawn.
I put 2 kg per sq metre of rock dust onthe veg patch. I will repeat it as I think it improved the veg and the sweet peas. I've started adding it to the maturing compost heap,so the worms can work it in before I use the compost as a mulch.
Morning all oooooo I'm 1st... Well not as cold as I thought here this morning. Although there was still a good frost on the car. It was that beautiful feather frost. Jack Frost has been busy. Works manic ATM ( why oh why do criminals all go loopy b4 Xmas, do t they know I have preparations to do) so I'm up to a 4 day week ATM just to help out as our numbers are few!!!! Followed a HIlux (pickup) into work this morning and the entire rear section was full of hire and pink heathers they looked fab. Now I don't do heather but I have to admit seeing that I thought I may find a space for a few white varieties ( and maybe purple) in the wooded bit next year.... It's food for thought .... Hope you are all well sorry I'm absent juggling home work and life gets a bit hectic at times...... Wrap up warm today peeps ......
Morning all. No work today as the electricity's off while work is being done. Just as well as it would be even colder than usual because we had some snow last night.... Freezing now so will take a bit of time scraping the car!
No chance of getting much done outside today unless the sun melts the frosty ground.
Wrap up warm and have a good day wherever you are.
Sending you a warm hug Andy. Keep tucked up if you have snow- I expect you'll have a bit too.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Morning Stacey and everyone. You were an early bird. Very cold here but no frost. Well slept like a log all night. Feeling better but not 100%. But off to work today (groan)
Hope all ok with everybody have a good day and take care. See you all later byeeeeeee.
