Started to fill pots ready for tomato plants. First, I had to empty them of whatever was growing in them - mostly salad leaves of various sorts. Since they were flowering and setting seed I replanted them around the garden wherever I could find a gap!
Then I sieved the old compost and mixed it with some newer stuff. Lined the bottom of the pots with wool insulation and refilled them with compost. I've done 5 today.
Then I went back to weeding under the sweet chestnut and the dwarf orchard. I scattered Amaranth and Tree Spinach seeds in a bare patch.
I've also been playing a little "Johnnie Apple Seed" game scattering calendula seeds in any bare patch. This may become my new game - put a jar of random old seeds in my pocket and - whenever I pull up a weed, I'll sow a few seeds in its place. Veggie Scatter Seed - that's me.
