Bitsa

Been out and about the last few days, and not doing much on the farm; just bits and pieces here and there.

I’ve finished off the cube by the stone shed properly, so that it’s now sufficiently clad to stop sunlight hitting the water and letting the algae in. Also the guttering has been set-up:

I’ve put another row of spuds in, and clamped the first and second rows:

My datura seeds have all germinated:

The grapevine is doing well, and showing a lot of new growth:

I’ve fixed a hose on to the fuller of the new cube; the fitting is on to a cap, so it can easily be moved to the other cubes as and when:

Lots of spring flowers everywhere:

wild flowers

…But the terraces are starting to look a bit overgrown again; time for some more strimming, I think, although the flowers are so pretty it’s a shame to behead them:
