Planting Membrane & Paving Blocks

50 paving blocks off Freecycle picked up this afternoon and taken to the allotment. You can't have too many to hold down everything with the winds we have been having recently.

When I arrived at just after 2 it was between 38C - 36C in the potting shed before I left the door open and opened the windows.

I used the tuna tin on a cut down broom handle and the weed burner to make a 105 hole 2.4 x 1.2m planting membrane. heating up the tin allowed 3 to 4 holes to be done before the weed membrane needed to be extracted from inside the tin and then it needed warming up again for the next 3 - 4 holes. Way faster than doing it with a soldering iron.

After the first few holes had been formed

Completed 2.4m x 1.2m 105 number planting holes planting Membrane.

Topped up all the self watering propagators then it was time to come home at just gone 5pm and the temperatures were down to 20.7C - 21.6 C in the potting shed.
