Today was a digging day. I finished off digging where the squashes are going to go, and also the part of the plot set aside for roots this eyar got dug over again. There were patches of perennial weed starting to show through and I think I managed to get most of it out. I guess time will tell.
I also tidied up the strawberry beds and got the remaining dandelions out, mostly in tact.
I've netted them over now so that basically I dont forget to do it later on. The holes in the net are plenty big enough for the bees to get through.
The broad beans have finally made it through the surface, but something has been having a nibble at them. I dont know if its the pidgeons, or if its mice. I managed to save a few that had been lifted and I think next time I go down I'll put some kind of 'scaring' device (rustling stuff most likely) to ward off the pidgeons if it is them uprooting.
I feel very much on top of things at the plot right now :)
