2022 - What I did today

I've got spider mites in the greenhouse again, particularly on the cucumbers and I think some of the galina tomatoes. I'm spraying with a soap solution every 3 days to see if that stops the spread. I removed the worst affected leaves and sprayed some of the aubergines that are nearby.

Main job today was feeding and watering all the plants in the greenhouse. The feed I use is comfrey and urine mixed which doesn't smell at all like you would think. A 200L waterbutt filled with comfrey with urine added as available. Farmers are short of fertilizer, particularly urea - one of the main ingredients of urine.

I also removed all the brassicas, mainly broccoli and a couple of caulis, flowering under the netting to make room for the ones still growing and ensure the netting is butterfly proof.
