Tomorrow's plan is for mulching, caging & a spot of B&D, before I figure-out an easier way of watering without having to lug a shitload of water over multiple trips every time I visit.

Just in case you're wondering what the light-coloured stuff all over the ground is, it's the wood ash I removed from the wood heater yesterday.

The soil isn't as bad as I initially thought, but once this lot has run its course, I'll be adding a shitload of organics to the soil & turning it all in, then leave it to over-winter with a cover crop before I start again next year.

Thanks, mate. Frankly, it's all thanks to @DustyDuke who provided the clones of Incredible Bulk to give me the impetus to do this, or else I wouldn't be doing anything at all this year.

I've still got 3 clones of IB & one of Gelato OG which I'm going to play "Frankenstein" games with (cloning, colloidal silver etc...etc..) that I've learned-about by reading this thread & making a shitload of notes over the past couple of years. Thanks to all the guys & girls that have made me learn.

It's definitely now beer-o'clock. I'm shagged!

'Shoulda seen it 10 years ago. Notice the burnt-out stump behind the fencing? That's a small one. Everything else is just runaway regrowth.

Took me ages to find a spot that gets decent sunlight in between the burnt-out trees during the day & then clear the plot of all the saplings, ferns/bracken & fucking weeds. With any luck, I can keep this area going for several years before some bastard finds it & rips me.

This mob is the best I've found for bulk purchases of Jiffy's. They come in various sizes & pack-sizes, so be aware what you're ordering. 'Depends what you want/need them for & the intended application......
