Went blackberrying and made blackberry crumble with custard.
I have the rest freezing on a tray and will bag them up tomorrow.

Cutting more hedge and strimming

Yesterday: I found some garlic cloves sprouting, so stuffed the into the ground. Does it work with garlic the same a shallots that bigguns get little'uns, and vice versa? The 'cloves' that sprouted were actually bulbs that didn't divide last year, so maybe all they'll do is go to seed.

This time last year, I planted some like that. They did really well, made some nice bulbs, divided normally. Hopefully yours will do the same!

Thanks Mark, the variety of these bulbs is unknown, they were the derivative of some old supermarket garlic cloves that I planted well over 5 yrs ago. The garlic kept coming up each season but never made cloves, it was growing very densely, but it was enough for my purposes. Last year I decided to grow garlic a bit more seriously and I planted in the spring indoors in pots because the weather was so wet, not letting the cloves get frosted. Lesson learned. We'll see what happens this year.

After work, I did a bit more hedge removal. And painted all the stumps with wire grown in. So Bob doesn’t damage his chainsaw.

Bob was Hedge cutting, I was hauling away and painting stumps so it doesn’t come back.

Ripped out the tomatoes. Pruned the sweet peppers. Spread manure on the tunnel raised bed & covered it with weed fabric. Tidied the tunnel and shut it down (mostly) for the winter. Started taking out some of my chillies.
