Hay-fever season
While I’ve been enjoying the abundance of spring flowers, my poor husband has been suffering from watering eyes, itchy skin and intermittent season. The biggest culprit – the jasmine and wisteria.
Last of the winter crops harvested
It’s over for another year. I’ve harvested the last of this round’s cabbages and cauliflowers and prepared the beds for my summer tomatoes, basil, eggplants, and zucchini. I’ve even chucked in some sweet corn and radishes.
I still have beans and peas on the go, but they should be all done by the start of November.

- Propagate summer seeds
- Start removing finished winter crops

- Mulch veg beds, fertilise (add manure, compost and alike)
- Weeding
- Clean and repair outdoor furniture

Stay tuned for more Spring posts!
