Took a load of bags of grass down to the plot today. Handy to mulch under the fruit. Just the vines, black currants, Strawberries and the fruit in the back of beyond that needs mulching.
Mulched the courgette bed with manure. Planted out the pumpkins and the courgettes. Made little forts around each of the plants with grass and covered with fleece. Thinking behind that is when grass is laid on thick it can heat up, whilst thw walls themselves will give some protection from the wind which combined with the fleece should hopefully mean that they get a nice microclimate going on
Noticed that the quince and Medlar are both flowering
