No dig diary, 17th May 2024
More planting out today, mostly lettuces and salad onions that I don’t need filling up the greenhouse any more. Time for them to be in the ground outside. Most of the tomatoes, the aubergines and peppers/chiles were potted on, too. … Continue reading

This morning there was proof that slugs and/or snails have been at my lettuce seedlings. In a try next to the lettuces were some coriander seedlings. This morning I found one with the leaves on the compost, detached from the … Continue reading

The main goal today was to get the strawberries planted out, which was a bit of a challenge given how much rain had fallen overnight. The ground is absolutely sodden, which was a real shame given that it has been … Continue reading

I think I need some practice at plaits 🙂 That’s probably about a quarter of the garlic harvest this year. Perhaps a touch more, but not much. Despite the rubbish weather I have also been out in the garden a … Continue reading

After a few miserable days I got out in the garden today and planted out Romanesco cauliflower under my brassica netting. They should have gone out a couple of weeks back probably, but I wasn’t able to do so at … Continue reading
