Tractor wash!

Time to wake up that thing. Actually well late for it.

After planting potatoes this year and then digging them up and bending over an extra 8192 times to pick out all the steel, plastic, bricks, concrete and rocks, it's a LOT better this year.

Hit only one brick. Last year it was all bumps!

Also went and leveled some of the mess under the tree from the failed experiment in agroforestry and then did a surface pass through the orchard to break up the shallow Virginia creeper roots, which worked wonderfully - without bothering the deep apple tree roots at all.

As usual, a polite reminder: Don't fucking #Plasticulture, motherfuckers. That shit stays in the ground long after you're dead.

Short work day because morning shenanigans in town, but then I retrieved the rotavator from the tractor barn. Fixed a few small problems and greased all the things, as it was nicely painted but not a drop of grease anywhere.

Some studying of Japanese manuals (translated) and wrestling the thing on and off the 3PH twice and then... magic!

Turning the concrete field into fluffy garden soil. At sunset, sadly, so just a quick test run.

🌱Creating a covered planting area🧑‍🌾
After moving the shed I was left with a patch of ground that is relatively low in weeds and planned on using it as just another area for growing things. However, after getting rid of the other greenhouse I was also left with a greenhouse base that either needed giving away to the local metal fair

Jungle Clearance

Due to the weather being quite rubbish I didn't get over to the allotment much in the past month. And it seems things are now starting to grow! A lot!

Planting Fruit Bushes

Poundland sells cheap fruit bushes, and if you pick the ones with leaves on, they tend to grow fairly well and make a nice hedge type thing. If you pick the ones with no leaves on... they're dead, you're buying a dead plant... They're also not a pound each, but never mind.
