Oof! I'm super proud that my lemonade tree is fruiting for the first time. I hope I can find a picture of it, as I'm currently on holidays, but I'll aim to upload it as soon as I can. It makes me so happy, haha

 

[Briztank]

Yeah nice! I'll take a pic of me freshly mulched fruit trees next time I go for a wander and check em out they were beautiful

 

[Briztank]

Righto got round to taking a photo but they're not as satisfying as in person and having that accomplished feeling!

My row of fruit trees all fed, composted and mulched ft. Lulu the pooch. The netting around them to stop the sheep chewing away. The close up is of my Black Doris tree with it's singular fruit on it I'm SO excited - they're my favourite plums ever! The third pic is of my first Birdies tall raised bed where I've planted 8 tomatoes and 6 cos lettuce all grown from seed and mulched with some strawberry straw too - excuse the random pots of tomatoes and capsicum they're just hanging out there till I whack em in the ground later today ☺️

Bloody hell the old sun and wind cooked most of my seedlings I planted this morning...lesson learned, shade cloth and afternoon planting tomorrow 🙄

 

[Briztank]

Mounded the spuds today, love the high quality mulch and lines of beautiful taties!

Been able to get the Best Deal ever 🔥♥️
A trailer full of the most beautiful kompost/horsemanure including a mount of worms 🪱🪱🪱 in exchange for a plant (chili, raspberry, lavender) and a bit of help.

and I can get even more of that stuff for the same deal 😍😍😍 speak about cost efficiency 🤣 and it's interchanged with another self-sustaining soul as well ♥️🔥 great connection 👍

just mowed the last time until spring yesterday and used it to mulch my pointed cabbage. Its still growing very well for the temperatures 🌡 which get already down to 1 °C at night, so we might get the first ground frost 🥶

Yum brassicas! Do you get hammered by those white butterfly caterpillars on your brassicas @Lunai ?

not right now... way too cold for them. Ask me again next summer😅 but I haven't seen netting on any of the neighboring Plants... so I guess there're not as many🤔 We'll try and see.... but in any case I'm planning with som sacrificial plants. Cause I think those cabbage white butterflys are quite beautifull 😍
