There was a new delivery of manure first thing this morning. It was well rotted with minimal additional stuff in it. In other words, damn good stuff. So it was time to get truckin' with the barrow.
Firstly there is the original mound. This needs to have a good layer thrown on it, then dig up the soil from around the base. (Mr. Fox had a dig in there last night and left some nifty holes.) This will become the new courgette mound.
Then at the back of the plot there is going to be the new mound for the German Pumpkins.
Finally I made a mound by sieving last years compost. This has certainly broken down well and has turned out great. Despite not turning or forking it in any way. I just piled it up and let it go.
This will mostly go in the new strawberry bed I built yesterday to give them some much needed nutrient boost.
And finally a look at the new blueberry pots. I did these yesterday but forgot to take a picture of them.
I seriously suspect that they're going to have to be netted in some manner as those pesky pigeons will be after them.
