Worm feeding, tomato sowing, GH weeding, general mooching.

Greenhouse cleaning, how do you stop the moss growing around the glass clips and down the glass edges?

I did much the same with a plastic label and a screwdriver. Thanks.

Weeded then tidied my GH.
Potted on sweet peas then potted up some I’d rooted from tips.
Mixed spent cucumber compost with dalek compost for my lettuce buckets.

Cleaned my last lot of seed collected last year. Working out stuff for the house. Updated my gardening notebook. Hid from many many heavy showers.

Weeded the rhubarb patch (one of them). Put some washing out, brought it in again 10 minutes later!
Tidied up GH2 to make room for more trays of seedlings. Already home to seedlings of onions, rhubarb, brassicas and sweetpeas.

As well as the above ^^^ I went to Morries for a couple of things. In the freezer aisle, where all the frozen food is behind tall, glass doors, I met an elderly lady (I say that in the hope that she was older than me) in a mobility chair. I offered to help her with whatever she wanted from the freezer. She declined my help, saying that she only had to back up a bit to open the freezer door. So I told her to call if she needed help, but left her to it as she clearly wanted to be independent.
When I looked back to see if she was OK, she had " backed up a bit" and had opened the freezer door. Then she lifted an oldfashioned, wooden walking stick, with a curved handle, off the wheelchair and started to hook it around on the top shelf until she managed to dislodge something, not sure what, but it made a big bump when it fell, landing on her wheelchair and dislodged a big bottle of water from her basket, which fell on the floor and rolled around the aisle!
Another customer got to the water before I did and picked it up. I had to admire the old lady for her initiative with the walking stick, but couldn't help thinking that something like a box of icecream falling on her head would not do her much good.

Independence is very valuable but so is common sense, they don't always go together.

Work. Sown seeds, built first raised veg bed. Had a bonfire.
