Hey MART--Whatcha mean..."off"? if I was off, I was off gardening. chuckle. Because in the first post you said,, "During my absence here" !! Thought I had missed something,, like a vacation !
As always Sjoerd, you amaze me with your perfectly beautiful garden. Sorry that you dropped the corn seedlings. It is a lot of hard work, but it's such joy when we see and eat the results. I too have been quite busy with the joy of gardening.
Chuckle... MART--I know...I was just teasing you. What an astounding piccy you took. You really have been doing some work there! That view from the room with a view looks great. Really nice.
Ordinarily I use a kneeling bench when planting or weeding, but scattering hay is a bending type job.
@Sjoerd...always love your gardens. I agree with others, the amount of plants you have on that lot is amazing. You have been quite busy..the soil looks awesome!!! Keep it up, I might have to come see what you're doing!!!
I shall keep an eye out for you Hummer. Hmmmmm...put her to work....hummmmmm.... I may be so happy to see her, GP, that I could forget to put her to work.
Perhaps I ought to begin a B&B and instead of letting folks pay, I could just ask them to do work in the lottie....hahaha It wouldn't work if it were Stewbies that came to visit though, would it-- They get to stay for free, of course.
I would like to see your lottie and accept advice on how to do things as you and your bride. Alas, I probably won't make it that far. Your idea of letting folks work alongside you as Band B payment sounds perfect but chances they would never leave!
Heh, heh---who in the world would want to do that...really. You know how hard garden work is...and folks go on vacation to relax not to be pressed into service. You are right, they might indeed not want to leave again. hahaha. Ach wel, I am easy-going.
Looking good Sjoerd! Sad to hear about Nettie Will you need to further fertilize those Courgettes, or will that compost and manure get them through the year?
Well Netty, I am not sure, fro I have never gardened ob her soil before...but what I will do is feed them comfrey tea from time to time whether they act like they need it or not. That soil is so poor, I can't imagine not feeding them anymore.
