No dig diary, 8th March 2024

Yet more weeding today, but I’m now on the final leg and actually the last (small) bed and a half don’t look too bad at all. Which is a good thing, as in the last few weeks it feels as though someone has moved the ground further away.

I’ve also been potting up strawberry plants from the old tubs. There are six, but today I only managed to get three of them done, giving me sixteen individual plants. There’s a strong possibility that I’m going to run out of pots before I run out of strawberry plants.

As I tipped the remains of one of the tubs into the compost, out popped a queen hornet. Sadly I only realised what I was looking at after a whole load of soil had fallen on top of her so I don’t think she’ll make it.
