Time to harvest the onions

Today we harvested the onions in Bed 1 and 2 and planted the beds up again with a yellow courgette and a green courgette.

The soil was dry  not very good, so we added some compost and incorporated some gel from Pampers nappies so it keeps the water in better.


In the middle of this bed we dug a deep hole and put in the bottom the gel from an(un used) soaked nappy, with an upside down bottle for deep watering next to it a courgette plant.

The soil dries out very quickly so we hope to use this garden hack so that the courgette will survive the summer holidays and give us loads of fruit on our return.
