Pulled up all the large leeks, they were all going to flower and that means tough stems. Have put 4 black coral zucchini seeds in their place. I dug a good deep hole, popped in some compost and a few sheep pellets and filled it in, made a dent in the top, put in a hand full of seed raising mix, the four seeds then lightly sprinkled a layer of seed raising mix on top. Gave it a light water and put a terracotta saucer over them to keep them moist and also to warm things up. I put in four so I could keep the best one. Planted lots of small rocket and coriander seedlings around the garden. Noticed the first sign of the potatoes breaking above the soil today. Made good layers of grass cuttings, horse poo and shredded paper in the compost bin. I could feel the heat after a few hours.
Gave all the garlic a good liquid feed of thrive fruit and flower.
