2025 - What I did today

Weeding. A much neglected past time of late. The frutcage was almost a lawn of weeds. Unfortunately the soil was rock hard and in some cases I couldn't get a fork into it. I plan to revamp the fruit cage when we have some rain to loosen the soil. Out will come the summer raspberries, which must be well past their sell by date and I intend to replace them with a couple of varieties of autumn ones. The Joan J I have are so much nicer and less susceptible to aphid attack.
