Sounds like you have achieved a huge amount, Westi….nice when you stand back at the end of the day, and see what you have done!
I’ve been suffering with Vertigo for a week, and does it make work seem hard….had to leave all the ladder work for a while….

Can you line your compost bin with black plastic, to stop the bindweed from getting in, Westi?

I think the only problem with white mustard is, if you have clubroot, it’s not a good idea to grow it….

Re: Soil prep alternatives!
Most seed companies do single mixes, Westi…it’s just a matter of working out what type works best in your cropping rotation….some of the Nitrogen fixing Green manures, work well! Some of the grass Green manures do a really good job but, take a bit of digging in.

God morning, Burnie, I pinched the tops out of the early sown Aquadulce but, the Monika, Stereo and Bunyards exhibition, never got anywhere near that stage and were only half grown when totally infested from top to bottom….

Re: Summer Bits and Bobs.
My biggest failure this year has been the first lot of Charlotte potatoes, (very small) and Broad beans, decimated by black fly! Things that are going exceptionally well are, Carrots and Runner beans….strange, as the other plot holders are really struggling with theirs…..the Autumn planted Onion set...

Re: Summer Bits and Bobs.
I had that a few years ago, Burnie, and what a nightmare….every time I went in there, I spent 10 minutes killing as many as I could….I did get on top of them in the end!

Re: Summer Woodland
Well done, Burnie…..when I returned for my lunch a few minutes ago, there was a pair of Tree Creepers, bobbing about on the trunk of a tree, in the Churchyard…..stood and watched them for a while but, hunger made me continue my journey….
