  1. Quick and dirty attempt at dissuading the swamp hens from my garlic. Need to build something better.

    (Dear swamphens I hope you all trip embarrassingly!)

  5. Maggie likes when I water the garden, the harmless land bound mammal that disturbs bugs. #VeggieGardening #gardeningau #SuburbanWildlife

  6. Uhhh, I went away and the daikon lept from the earth. With its friends. Anyone got a good recipie for a lot of daikon. I usually pick them small for stirfry, but a lot go to waste. Not a fan of them roasted.

    Potentially thinking if I made a decent fermentation I could trade some with the local homegrown food exchange.

  11. Anyway, I’m going to leave the other spuds there for now, and attempt to give them a bit more water. Fingers crossed.

    But if you were wondering why #MinimumChips is looking so scant lately, this is why.

  12. So, what did I get from 5 months of garden-bed space? These three spuds, which I’d estimate at a bit over half a kilo.

    I’m not sure what they needed but didn’t get. Warmth earlier in the season would have helped, I’m sure. They weren’t bogged down by the rains as they were in a raised bed and hilled up besides, and the soil isn’t clay-y. In digging up the bed it was clear that the last few weeks have dried the soil out a lot, even though I’ve been watering. I guess it all runs off or evaporated from the hilling-up. Still, it should have been ok.

    I didn’t amend the soil particularly, other than doing my hilling up with sifted soil from the next bed over, where prunings and other garden waste have been rotting down for years; it had more organic matter than the bed I started with, but wasn’t what I’d call incredibly rich compost. Nor did I do a pH test, though the weeds growing there (chickweed, fumitory, wild radish, black nightshade, cleavers, the odd dandelion) suggest it’s pretty neutral veggie garden soil. It’s not like spuds are usually super fussy, in my experience.
