No dig diary, 24th May 2026

The plan today was to spread more compost in the polytunnel and get the rest of the tomatoes planted out in it. Even relatively early in the morning it was clearly way too hot however so after one wheelbarrow’s worth of compost I gave up on the plan.

Instead I assisted my daughter mowing the grass and got through some weeding of the “edible flowers” bed that I’ve largely ignored for the last nine months.

The compost bin became quite full, but I’m not ready to move to the next one because I’m still using it for storage, so I added some extensions. I’m sure it’ll all die down over the next week anyhow…
