It started with a few little fix up jobs around the Chook yard.... I put up a fence & gate around the back of the chook shed to extend their run & replaced the 2 makeshift gates into the yard with a single gate....
Was getting tired of having the Girls scratch dirt all over the path way so decided to recycle the side boards from the old garden beds to act as a "Retaining Wall" & wired them to the inside of the fence..... Works well as you can see from the second Picture... : )»
We have been told to expect rain all weekend so I got stuck into the 2 wicking beds that are replacing the old Herb bed....
Finished putting the frames up on Wednesday & fixed the paving up on Thursday after I did the new Chook Gate... Today we filled the reservoir's with recycled sand from the old Spice bed & some Clay balls that were leftover from a previous attempt at Hydroponic gardening 11 or so years ago...
We are using a mix of soil from 2 of the old beds that was sieved & searched for Curl Grubs First... We shall be adding some Mushroom Compost & 5 in 1 to the soil just to freshen it up a bit.... The top layer will be some Premium garden mix leftover from the the last few beds that were renovated..The paving came up great between the 2 new beds... Hopefully we will have the Seat/Storage box there for the tools & chook food by Monday so shall update then...
Have a great one all.....
