After the rain comes the weeds

You can pretty much be certain that a few days after we gets some decent rains we're in for a growth spurt... from the weeds. And this is exactly what we've got now. The grasses, bind weeds, lambs quarters, thistles and who knows what else is very much trying to take over the plot. So it's all hands on deck.

I made a start on the pathways and the grass that's around the greenhouses, whilst The Wife made huge in roads clearing up the Edamame beds.

Unfortunately after a while we saw dark clouds on the horizon. So retreat was the order of the day as we didn't want to end up like before.

Good thing too, we just managed to make it home before those dark clouds caught up to us and started dumping more weeds growing substance on the ground. Guess we'll have to go back tomorrow.

  1. At least you've had decent rain, I think our tally is about 40mm over the last 100 days. Our courgette tally is about 90 from our 4 plants so far starting 5th May : All the best - Steve
