A bit of autumn digging

15/11/2017

 
Monday 13th November
After spending Sunday morning with the Association Working Party improving access to the new container, I only had time for a quick visit this afternoon.
I needed to prepare the bed for the summer raspberries I have ordered and could arrive any day. The courgette plants have almost disappeared but the plastic bottles sunk next to each plant for watering were still in the ground. I had forgotten to bring my digging tools but managed with the old ones I leave in the shed. I forked out the bottles and then dug the 4 foot wide strip over.
I then started sorting out the compost I want to dig in before planting. The mature compost bin no longer needs the extensions so I transferred them to the next bin. That meant I could add the garden waste from the pile of bags I had waiting. Next time I shall remove the front panel of the bin and start digging out the compost.
To finish I removed the netting covering the strawberries so I can weed then. I then pulled a Mooli radish and a couple of small Swedes to take home.
I haven't taken any photos recently as my phone has started 'losing' the pictures. However I succumbed to temptation and photographed the sunset as I went home. When I find where it has been stored I will be able to post it.

Photo of Monday's sunset which I finally discovered buried away on a chip in my phone! Enough cloud to keep the temperature overnight from plummeting into frost?
