my vegie patch


There's clover in my vegie patch and I'm having trouble getting rid of it. While many deliberately planted seeds fail to thrive, the clover is running amok. Yesterday I spent over an hour plucking it out by hand, only to find today that it has sprung up again, albeit in smaller amounts. I put its presence down to having used soiled hay from the bunnies' hutch as compost - some seeds must have snuck in.




On a happier note, following a friend's advice I planted the white section of supermarket bought spring onions in some dirt out the back. It's worked a treat. I popped them in only a few days ago, and they're sprouting up nicely now.
