Update on My Gardening Exploits
At last, Springtime has arrived and after a few dry days, I was able to cut the grass in the front and back gardens, the first cut since October 2007, and there was alot of grass added to the compost heap at the bottom of the back garden. The 2 plots on which I planted potatoes and vegetables last year have stayed relatively weed-free and they are ready for more potatoes and vegetables this season, which I hope to plant at the New Moon on 6th April, 2008 although more likely will be the potatoes going in first in one entire plot. These potatoes I have been collecting over the last 8 weeks or so, taking the odd one here and there from our supply of potatoes and they have sprouted nicely after I placed them into a paper sack and kept in our spare room. Other seeds that I intend to plant are spring onions, carrots, mixed lettuce and peas. I am delighted to be back to doing what I love doing, out in our garden enjoying our beautiful planet, Gaia. Welcome Spring, Welcome Spring! |
