Cropping

Cropped the garlic, which are small bulbs, not useful for eating. I will replant them next year in the hope they may develop.
Wehave had some poor weather with 150 - 200 mm rain overnight.

Vegetables mostly

Planted out two more snowpeas to replace lost peas.
Planted out onions next to garlic.
Sprinkled growmore on the garlic. The supermarket garlic has not sprouted at all.
Weeded the vege patch.

Its been a wet week with 20mm rain on Friday.

Pruning, mulching, repotting, weeding.

Its been a pleasant day with plenty of sun and a max of 15 degrees, and no wind.

Broke up a pallet board for kindling, but some planks were suitable for a new seed tray 30cm x 40cm, so cut them to size ready to put together.
Repotted the hellebores into 2l pots, and the helleborus foetidis from a 2l pot into a trough by the rumpus room.
Sprinkled some growmore on the garlic, which are beginning to sprout.
Mowed the lower lawn and mulched the salt bush and hydrangea clippings from last week and week before last with the mower. Clippings put on the composting waste by the woodpile at the end of the lower lawn.
The pool pump is still leaking and so switched off to give me time to look at the problem.
Pruned hydrangea by alstroemeria.
Brought up some more branches that fell from the pine last spring ready to cut into logs.
Cut down some tobacco weed and treated the stalks with woody weedkiller.
