What Jobs Are We Doing in the Garden Today... MK3.. 2013

No sorry I live in a bungalow.

 

Got a chimney stack to climb up on?

 

Yes but my ladder isn't long enough to get up there.

 

Today was glorious and I just pottered about doing vaguely useful 'stuff', pulling up a weed here, cutting back the odd branch there. So much real work I should have been actually doing but it was one of those days just to relax and enjoy the garden in the winter sun

 

Been putting up new bird feeders and sorting out some outside Bonsai.

 

It's confession time, the neighbour wanted the hedge replaced with a fence, so she has paid for the materials & I'm doing the work.

 

Pruned my red and black currants,yesterday and gave a bush away, a black currant bush to a new plot holder,also have taken him some cuttings for the red currants. Today have set out my new strawberry patch as my old patch is getting untidy with couch grass.-Will prune my gooseberry bushes all been well at the weekend,also take some more cuttings of these for my new found pall.

 

a bit of weeding and planning garden designs for next spring! resting before the garden workload that begins in March .... cant wait!

 

Pah! Must try harder!!

Seed sowing for stratifying - now-ish onwards
Growing lights to bring plants on sooner, indoors
Research of plants and locating seed-on-the-cheap or scrounging "Bits"
Spreadsheets, Gantt Charts, Motivational Talks ... all to be prepared!!!

 

Totally agree with you kristen,
I am already on my spreadsheets and gantt charts....

 

Another glorious day but I did actually get stuck into some work today. Everything needing cut down has now been done (and maybe some things that I shouldn't have) Filled another 3 garden bags full of leaves and all the compost bins are full.
