I love these practical tips! I use the 10 mins this time of year for general getting eyes on everything to see if any intervention needed, thinning, tying up to a trellis, pest damage, what strawberries need to be eaten before the pest get them etc. I find particularly strawberries need to be picked the day they are ripe or something will start to eat them. As I walk around I pull weeds here and there. Water on a timer so only hand watering some pots around the house. In TX March and first weekend in April were extremely time consuming planting everything. Time spent ebbs and flows. I keep planting things where spring crops failed (I’ll get that season eventually!) so it’s time to make room for bean seeds.
You're about a month ahead of us here in Columbus! And spring is so hard. Last year my cauliflower thrived in the cool spring but this year it has frost damage. SO hard to predict and that's why I ultimately go with my gut!
Love this! Thanks for sharing! Currently in a flat but looking forward to in a few years time when we plan to get a home with garden and have a smallholding! xxx
