Nip and a punch for the first of the month.

4 comments

Started the first day of may with nipping out sweet-peas so that they could be planted out next to the broad beans. I then rearranged the various plants in pots that have been living in the veg cage. I am eating the remains of last years cabbages as spring greens.

The other side was weeded and I sowed carrots, spring onions, radishes and rocket. I have started cabbages off in cells and organised the runner bean poles to support the beans that have germinated in the ground. Victoria asked for lots of beans so French, Mange tout and Cobra climbing beans have also gone into pots.

I found a tub with 3 potatoes growing left over from last year so they have had some fresh compost to encourage them.

After lunch I went back to the front garden and continued the weeding. Only atrocity corner left now the borders front and to the right are done.

Front border complete.

Side border done now.

Atrocity corner awaiting its make over. Full of Spanish bluebells brambles and common weeds. Some will be left for the various moths we will get in the garden.

The rockery is looking ok and so far no sign of couch grass but that is only a matter of time. I hope the weeding I did a few weeks back

Still have some areas in the back garden to sort but that is for another day.

I did a check before posting and I had typed wedding instead of weeding. Clearly got weddings on the brain. Dress shopping with Victoria on Thursday :o)
