Sorry this is super late. I’ve been busy and forgot to post at the same time as the frugal thread.

I also haven’t been able to do much gardening. The window boxes don’t hold much, I’m struggling with fatigue and the carrots I’m hoping would set seed are being eaten! Perhaps in future I’ll be able to do more.

Have you got any plans for your garden coming into spring?

    I wish I could grow stuff in my backyard and not be limited to tiny pots… but I just don’t have the energy or strength to deal with the creeping grass that would only grow back under the fence from the neighbours yard. It would choke out anything I planted.

    I’d have to get organised and do the soil test as well to ensure it was safe to grow edible produce.

    Perhaps dig up the soil to aerate it, made more difficult by having put weed mat down in the past (the grass just grew right through) and old buried rubble from the builders that I couldn’t dig out. I’ve never been that strong and am just becoming more disabled.

    I’d love a Meyer lemon tree in a pot but that would be a hassle to move.
