No dig diary, 18th June 2026

More weeding again today. I was hoping to get stuff planted out too, but… life. Nevertheless, the current compost heap became larger by five heavily loaded wheelbarrows of weeds, mostly nettles and cleavers. I kind of like weeding cleavers. You can just throw them at the wheelbarrow and they stick there. On the other hand I do have a few light welts on my arms between where the cuffs of my gloves protected them and the ends of my t-shirt sleeves.

My weeding did however reveal a crop I was more than happy to harvest.

Plenty more to come. Just need to unbury them first.
