Today I eagerly dug over most of my vegetable patch. It's important because when one does, it allows air and light into the soil. I am combining beds together to make larger vegetable beds to save space. I'll get more out of it this year. I will in the coming month or so draw up the new bed layout within the vegetable garden. A little thought is needed by me as to what I will grow in the beds and when rather than just chuck it all in like last year. Also I spread over by hand a Blood and Bone product to most of those areas. In the coming week there should be abit of showery and rainy weather so it should be good for the blood and bone to soak in abit. I'm thinking ahead. Pulled out all the weeds I could see. There was quite a few naturally. With recent wet weather the weeds come out like butter.So today I just didn't hang around, unlike the Australian hung Parliament.
Update on seeds; all seeds - onions, lettuce etc are coming through now. Just a week to go till Spring.
See the below pictures of what the patch looked like today, after what I did. Just a quick note: the third photo shows (look closely) new asparagus heads growing.
