The 2 lime trees are going to stay put for now... On Saturday they both got a bit of TLC in the form of citrus food, a top up of a soil blend made with our own Chook compost & a good pruning... The Kaffir had some infected branches clipped off & the Tahitian bed had the Lemongrass clump removed....We will give them another season & shall see how they go....
As a result of keeping the limes where they are, we now need to find new homes for the Turmeric, Ginger & Galangal.... As these plants have nice looking foliage, we have decided to put them in barrels at the base of the back stairs or somewhere in the yard !!
Spice Bed. |
While we were having a look at our options for moving the bed, we also came up with an idea for the Chooks yard..... We shall be leaving them with their little Mango yard & fencing off another section around to where the Galangal bed was.... These areas will be used alternately with one being planted out with green Chook food while they demolish the other.... They will only be let out in the whole yard again once all the holes they have dug for dust baths get covered with grass....
Bed #1 |
Into this bed B☼ planted 3 Black Jack Zucchini's...
Pumpkin Bed |
Bed #4 |
Bed #4 also got a good turning & top up with some soil mix..... It was planted out with a few rows of Brown Beauty Bush Bean seeds... The Zucchini in this bed is going great guns, giving us 1 fruit every 3 or so days...
Bay, Strawberries & Napoleon's Hat.. |
I have also been informed that the area under the stairs will be getting a makeover.... Apparently, I shall be removing the paver's & Concreting the area... **Sigh** Must come up with a better idea than that to trump the B☼ me thinks....
Just an update shot from the Carrot/Lettuce bed.....
I assure you that if you click on the image it looks a lot more impressive!! Maybe.... |
Nothing like hundreds of baby sprouts to bring a smile to your face... : )»
Have a great One all !!!!
