Raised bed

I didn’t get out in the garden yesterday (and today looks like it will, literally, be a washout), but on Thursday I moved 4 more concrete blocks into the Grow Dome and put together the second raised bed. It might not be entirely symmetrical, but I don’t care. I’m going to stop at one layer of bricks for several reasons. Firstly, the ground is not level and another layer of bricks would be very wobbly. Secondly, I haven’t got enough compost to fill a deep bed and there are lots of plants that will be happy in several inches of compost. Thirdly, if I stop here I have 24 blocks left and can make another raised bed in the garden at some point.

That only took the first half of my gardening hour, so for the rest of it I emptied the bag of mulch onto the bottom of the garden again. The bag is now empty and the bottom of the garden largely mulched.
