A few hours spent on the allotment this afternoon as there was rain this morning and concentrated on removing the broken square Dalek and replacing it with the standard LBS Composting Dalek I picked up in 2023 and composed on bed 5.
More weeds and rubbish added to the pile in the car park that the grab lorry is supposed to be coming to collect next week. A wheelbarrow load of good path quality woodchip from the diminishing pile in the car park to bed in the relocated Dalek in the plot 1 Dalek Army. My Robin has been all around me again this afternoon and following me to and from the car park.
View of the Plot 1 Dalek Army. The buckets are what I have been growing potatoes in this year and the soil & compost from that will go on top of SFG (Square Foot Garden) Bed 1 once I take the scaffold boards that I have been removing the end bands off it
Parts of the greenhouses on the raised bed needs to be stored away until I can use it on a project I have in mind.
The Asparagus bed on the right needs weeding and mulching over Winter.
The weeds around the beds need removing and the existing woodchips removed and new woodchip added whilst we have path quality woodchip in the car park.
The stuff in the full bed to the left of the raised bed needs clearing.
The low bed with the two large trays over needs excavating and the soil stored in square flower buckets and the excavation filled with rotting logs and timber from the bed frames I have pulled up. Then the bed needs extending and filling.
View from the plot 1 shed looking towards the Plot 1 Dalek Army.
Low beds along the bottom of the photo need weeding inside and out then covered with winter weed membrane until I can work on them to replace with raised beds.
Plum Tree to be drastically pollarded and the branches will go into the bottom of the raised new beds.
Raspberries to be cut back in January/ February and beds weeded and mulched.
