Karsa NCRH adventures

[Valentina]

...That hedge at the back was triple the size till Christmas, neighbour decided to cut it down and fuck my gardens privacy. Didn't even ask... Or heads up. So real tempted to whack a trellis up and pop some of my Virginia creeper into some raised boxes. Same with where they've ripped the fence out of the hedge. Left so many holes that it's pointless having the hedge now.

Dunno about you all but I expect my garden to be private, not have random people trying to talk to me through a fucking bush...

It's annoying... but everyone's nerves are frayed now and plants are plants and they grow back.

Personally I'd make use of the opportunity and stick a few prickly plants in.

Some life on the seedlings.

So far sprouting we have carrots and broccoli. Everything else has practically rooted at least so will keep an eye on it all and use the sun where appropriate in this stage (still a bit cold out when there's no sun).

Coming along. Cleared up the dead shit behind the greenhouse I took down before Christmas, burning our way through it atm. I've cleared under the hedging and raked out the borders on one side (pics next update).

Things are appearing, I'm concerned already fro my black pine as that's the tap you and seed head you can see... So that's gotta go into pots ASAP.

3ml feed of plain water and root stim for all. We had snow last night so glad I haven't put anything in the ground yet.

Tubers set up is on the way and the wall rack for herbs too.

Gotta get some compost/ fertz in as well as some pots.

Not very detailed here yet. House is a fucking mess and I have zero time again.... Anyway little update. 2/10 black pines above ground, potting them up tomorrow into 5gals if weather's alright to get out there with the kiddo I'll be able to get the rest of the stuff piled and burned and then ground turned over. I've got some top soil in and some wood for some raised beds etc.

Soil up here is very clay based but our garden has had several layers of top soil over the years by the look of it.

Thanks bud, not really made much more effort in the garden. Pulled out the old wood shed to inspect the contents. Mostly rotten with wood worm but some bits I can use for some raised beds if I treat it.

Also looking to bonsai my 3x Japanese black pines

Size of these English ivy roots...

Knocking these back is taking it's sweet ass time
Back of garden is overgrown again, didn't take much... Cleared the top half so it's safe for little one now. Working my way through the middle atm with a fuck ton of English ivy and Holly to chop back.
I have discovered 3 sheds buried in ivy... Dafuq were the people, who lived here before, doing?
There's lazy and then there is just plain ignoring...

Cabbage was decimated by white butterfly larvae.
Cucumbers are fine. Herbs growing out. 4th cycle of cress from perpetual seeding. My lavender (30+ plants) all rooted and are growing well... Anyone want one? Great cover crop and awesome smelling.

I'll get more in here as I go but things are all over the place right now.
