Jobs outside the beds

1. Tend herb boxes and plants on the pathways if needed

Bed-by-bed jobs

1. Potato Towers: The three towers of  Dutch Cream Potatoes are thriving. As they grow taller they  require top dressing with alternate layers of cut straw (under the blue box near the compost bins) and soil (the prepared soil is in B4). Aim is to topdress leaving about 10cm of leafy growth for photosynthesis.

2. Tomatoes: Continue harvesting tomatoes when they look about half ripe and remove yellowing leaves to the green bin.

3. We have been given two bottles of worm juice. (in the large shed) This can be diluted worm juice: water 1:10 and given to Citrus trees in particular and other plants as you wish.

4. Harvest Cumquats which are completely yellow.

5. Tend the compost bins by stirring using the tool in the big shed and top dressing current receiving bin with plane tree leaves in adjacent bin then plastic bag under the table.
