Hubby and I were busy today in the severely neglected garden
Drying out curry leaves, chillie to plant, pumpkin seeds, red pawpaw seeds and climbing spinach
Preparing an egg tray to plant seedlings
Remember my strange lime tree that is growing with no tree trunk? Well I got hubby to pound the star pickets in so i could tie up the branches so the limes would be off the ground or they rot
Mixing all the potting mix, chicken poo, mushroom compost and blood and bone, do you like my little garden helper that hubby bought me? I was able to pull 150kg of potting mix in that.
Separated the tomato plants out into three foam boxes, hope they survive, two were wilting already.
Small black pot of long chillies a friend gave to me today, will separate them out tomorrow.
That was a full on day of gardening for me, I fell asleep watching tv in the afternoon.

I love your garden.
ReplyDeleteWhat are those white containers, Bridge?
Not sure I understand your question Nils but here goes, the white containers are foam and they are the best to grow your stuff in, portable and light. The soil is a mixture of. blood and bone, potting mix and chicken poo and cow manure. The plant is a chilli tree and tomato plant
DeleteThanks Bridget.
DeleteHaha my auto correct changed Bridget to Bridge in the previous comment. 😁
The tomatoes should recover with water and a bit of shade for a day or two. Looking good, and I do love your wee buddy!
