Not posted about this subject in a while. At the end of November 2023 I decided to give one of my plots (the first one I had taken on some eight years ago) as I was finding that time does not now seem to let me cover the work required for two plots.
It has not been used for over three years and after a lot of work, became a very productive plot, which I hope the new tenant will enjoy it as much as I did.
So, over the winter-2023/2024 it was a matter of moving stuff over to the plot I decided to keep. In the end that was just two Blueberry plants as the fruits tree that I had planted 4 years ago had really taken hold and were too big to move. The same was true to be said for the small poly-tunnel that I had for 6 years. I had managed to anchor that down so well it would not budge! I will look at investing in a new one when I have cleared more of my current plot.
Work on the ‘new’ plot continues, I took this over in 2019, again this one had been abandoned for over three years – I do like a challenge! But good progress has been made and it’s become a productive plot.
There had to be some major changes to the plot, one of which was to build a new shed as there was no life left in the old one. I also decided to put some water tanks inside to collect rainwater, which was a very good idea with the recent hot summers we have had. I nearly emptied them a couple of years ago when the on-site water tanks were running low.
Pleased with the progress and looking forward to 2024 season, which I hope is as good as 2023 was.
