2025 - What I did today

A massive sowing of any old or new hardy flower seeds I had. In many cases they may have been sown too early or too late but who cares. If they fail then I can sow again in September according to packet instructions..... probably.

Welcome to the 'Bung it in club'

I'm a founder member   but I do like following the rules up to  certain extent, then get to the 'oh bu**er it" stage.

Started the day with Bob helping level the last shelf on the herb stand. My lift to work arrived so we didn’t get it completely finished. After work and untangling a sheep’s horn (still attached to the sheep ) from a fence and getting an owie . I started rewriting herb labels. Then rain stopped play.

Planted some sprouting root ginger. Planted a supermarket crate with "spring" onions (the ones that come in bunches from the shop). I've had them rooting in a tub of water for a few weeks and had intended planting them in the veg plot - but, the soil is too dry so I moved to Plan B - the Portable Garden.
Sowed carrot and beetroot seeds in the cucumber pots - doubling my chances of getting something edible from them.
Did some weeding, as usual. - docks, nettles, cleavers and enchanter's nightshade.
