Jakes pumpkin, he grew in class, now planted. Watered well, raised slightly from the ground ,as it can become water logged, then mulched. I used some of my more rotted compost and laid a 'straw type' barricade. Advice taken from plot 6 I believe x

Aaah, its good to be back. Weeds and all!!

Just the one simple job today, turning the compost heap...

Half way

Finished
I chopped each fork full of compost up into smaller pieces to aid with decomposition. Turning the heap also creates pockets of air within the compost, aiding decomposition.





now just to wait a few months...x
