We finished off the remainder of the composting today and managed to get it all into the bin – we’d left it so long that some of it was forming its own compost outside the bin already, LOL! So it may not take too long to rot down. The good news is that both our secateurs are fully mended and doing an excellent job of cutting things up.
Here is the fresh compost for you:
And here’s the compost from last year (we have two compost bins on the allotment which we use in rotation), which we hope to be able to use later this year for protecting the dahlias, and anything else if there’s any left over:
The one-year old compost is quite dry (as you can see from the pic above) so we gave it a quick soak before putting the lid back on.
Apart from that, there’s not much to do around the allotment of course, but the nasturtiums are still looking beautiful:
And we have a small harvest of sprouts as we’re now saving the rest for Christmas:
Just enough for Sunday lunch. Have a lovely Sunday, everyone!
