Saturday/Sunday

(26/27 June)
Weekend off, so some time was available for the garden!
Earthed up the spuds (no, seriously)
Sifted two barrow-loads of compost for the 'main bed'.
Put a mesh over two butternut squashes.
Pinched out the growing tip of one of the Table Queens, as it seemed pretty long.
Sowed some more carrot seeds in the gaps between the carrots.
Watered lots.
Cherries on the new cherry tree seem to have died.
Apples setting pretty well (Loads dropping, but loads left)
Rhubarb in partial sun seems to be better off than the one in the orchard (though it's had almost a week extra in situ...)
Weeded the rose bed. (Or maybe I'd already done that...)
Marigolds in tray are sprouting (and brought inside to prevent further attack from some random creature than got into the tray) Marigolds in miniplug thing aren't yet.
About half the jack-o-lantern seeds have appeared. Turks Turban ones also appearing. PSB too.
