Must be a very good type of “weed” that made you tear around strimming and mowing! 
Is is it legal!!??
(Just reread your post - you said a bucket of weed tea - not a cup of weed tea)

Looks like I’m not the only one who’s been at the suspect beverages  Big Grin  Wink Tongue  Big Grin
Mammoth session of potting on. Seriously running out of space now.
Planted a couple of very unhappy looking foxgloves in the garden. They really don’t like being in pots!
Sorted out a selection of plants for our neighbours.
Ventured into the Dwarf Orchard in search of the fruit trees. Its not that they're small but they are the same height as the Dog daisies and campion - judge for yourself. Big Grin
Dug out a lot of brambles and "harvested" most of the daisies and campions for path mulch. Took some accidental cuttings of a variegated oregano - now in water.
Picked some strawberries and put wire mesh over the ones in the baby bath as something has been eating the best ones!
Think I've spotted a fig in the front garden fig hedge. Can see it from the upstairs window but probably can't from ground level. Must remember to look tomorrow. Maybe there are more?
Finally got the gh borders planted with toms and cucs. P fixed a rocking slab on my hardstanding, hate a rocking slab, don't you? Smile planted out more beans Fasold and Neckargold and one unknown bean that grew in amongst a tomato that I didn't have the heart to scrap. I'm spending a goodly time each evening wrapping tenders with fleece, web say one temp, TV says another and we seem to be colder. Not had this before.
Today I planted some wheat for my cat Smile I heard that it is useful for cat's health
Moved some asparagus plants.

Finished prepping the sweetcorn bed.

Weeding.

Tidied the yard in case we come back with Hetty tomorrow(rescue dog)

Hopefully tomorrow Jen. She's a staffie cross, 11
Yesterday cut the paths in the potager, strimmed the grass out the front, mulched veg beds and some trees with clippings. Cut bamboo canes from our neighbour's garden, they're 6-7m tall!

Today watered the potager and mulched some more. Turned all the compost heaps and got a dalek full of usable compost and the next in line is nearly ready, too. Put up a couple of super tall tripods for the hops. MrPP will have fun checking the ripeness of the cones. Dead headed roses.
