I have bought some seedlings – cost me $5 for all these plants (they had been attacked by the chickens at CERES)
I have now planted them
some in the front garden (where I dug up the soil and added straw to improve drainage because the siol is quite compacted)
about 6 weeks ago I chucked some broad ben seeds in the frot garden in the vague hope that they might grow. I have done no soil preparation in the front garden and am not going to water it at all. So if the beans didn’t grow I thought fair enough, I thought though becasue its been quite wet recently I might be able to get some things started. (the beans are below)
I have put the seedlings in everywhere and I have put them in little crators these I fill with a bucket twce a week as per the “square foot gardening” book. In some paces I have also muclched them with newspaper (to try to reduce the amount of weeding I need to do)
