Oct Week 1: Sorting Out The Shed; Mulching In The Veg Patch; Garden Cross (Diadem) Spiders
GROW YOUR OWN FOOD with DIRTY NAILS OCTOBER, 1ST WEEK SORTING OUT THE SHED Throughout the hectic months of summer a whole array of useful bits and bobs, and a fair portion of useless articles too, gets stashed in the shed. Dirty Nails has been sorting out in here this week. It is a major job for him, and one that he tackles each spring and autumn. At this time of year it is prompted by the pressing need to create a handy space for stored potatoes, onions, squashes and other veg. These all need cool, frost-free conditions, and the pleasure in cooking home-grown produce is increased enormously if he can nip out to the shed on a dark evening and lay his hands on what he wants without fighting through a jungle of clutter first.
