If you haven’t tried a no-dig bed yet, this is your sign to give it a go 🌱
A few months ago I laid cardboard straight over the stony ground and had a load of soil delivered completely FREE 🙌
There was a slight catch… I did have to pick an entire broken-up bathroom suite out of it 🤣🚽 But free is free.
Fast forward a few months and I honestly can’t believe the difference. The soil is absolutely gorgeous. Full of worms and insects, really easy to work and the weeds were coming out an absolute treat.
Even the dock roots were weirdly satisfying when I managed to pull a massive ones out whole 😂
A bit more clearing to do over the weekend and then this is going to become our Cerinthe bed 🌸
Mainly because we’ve discovered the rabbits don’t eat it.
So apparently our new planting strategy is:
1. Will it grow here?
2. Will the rabbits leave it alone?
That’s about as scientific as we’re getting 🤣🐰
