Sweat and Roots

Hi Campers,

Well yesterday was another good day on the lottie. Got bed I in as planned..


But it took a lot, takes about 2 hours per bed, contrary to the last post the beds are 4x1.5m approximately.. As I discussed earlier, having the top growth off is only half the job...Here's the other half..

Roots from the bed, a big pile, the main root systems for the brambles seem to run long and wide, with a main deep root sinking about 1.5 feet into the ground, took a lot of effort to get them out, but it was worth it I is now in..

I thought I have not done a decent wide angle picture of the lottie for a while, so here is from the front...


Looks good huh? Remember just double click on the photos to see it..This shows the leek bed into the leak shack and the greenhouse in the background.

We are going to re-draw the plot, now the brambles have gone I have taken some ..ahem..accurate (ish) measurements of the plot so we can plan the rest of it..Dr Rach can assist on the drawing operation..

Results published soon...

Have fun
