29/11/25 - Strawberries, Mulch and Harvest
Good evening reader! Thanks for stopping by. This weekends visit was short and sweet, with about an hour or so of work done on the plot. It might be cooler, wet and darker earlier, but while the weather keeps the grass from growing and the weeds from germinating, it also means that I get more time to crack on with the other chores. I had notification this week that my bare root Raspberry plants should be coming via courier soon. I was hoping that they were going to be here this weekend, but alas, it now looks like Monday. So today where I should have been getting them into the soil, I took the final 4 pieces of timber up to the plot with me and screwed them to the uprights, ready for supporting wire to be fitted in the spring. A good job done for the winter, and something that I can now forget about. Last week, you may recall that I completed the tweaks needed in the polytunnel to help support an additional 10 hanging baskets of strawberry plants....
