No dig diary, 8th April 2024

I last weeded the big polytunnel and the greenhouses in January and today decided it was time to do them again, removing the Winter salads that are already starting to flower at the same time — the leaves become tough and unpleasant to eat once the plant is flowering so there’s not a lot of point keeping them any more.

Quite how so many weeds have suddenly invaded the beds inside the polytunnel and greenhouse I really don’t know. I don’t imagine they came in with the compost because they’d have grown last year. It took much longer than I expected, but now I have lovely weed-free beds, at least for the moment.
