Haven’t been to the plot for more than a week, so popped over there to turn the compost heaps. To speed the process up , you to regularly turn the heap to add oxygen for all the little microbes. It’s also important to cover, so that you can keep it warm and control the moisture levels.

Also great to see the onions have started sprouting 🧅🧅🧅

Lovely afternoon spent pruning the roses of a couple down the road. After looking after nearly 1,500 roses in my old job, it’s nice to keep my eye in.

Haven’t been to the allotment for a while, but the sun was out so went to work on the soft fruit area. Planted out a red gooseberry and a raspberry that we grew in our garden last year. Going to get 3 more raspberries, so also set out a new bed for them. Finally, mulched all the plants with bark chip to help suppress the weeds around their base.

Just because I can’t work at the allotment today doesn’t mean I can’t start planning on what we’re going to grow 🌱

We have decided to keep this blackberry bush, as not only do the kids love them but it’ll act as a great screen to the compost area. So we had to remove the old stems and tie in the young stems along the frame. Sadly it hasn’t been pruned for a while so there’s only a few young stems that’ll produce fruit next summer. But it should produce many more stems in the spring that we can tie in for the following summer.
