And no, I haven't got a watering system. I thought about one for the tomatoes, but the tap is just too far away to make anything work: no pressure! Also, I use bulk tanks as water butts and that watering has to be done with watering cans. I have watered my translocated hedge with the hose every evening. Because of its shape and me not wanting to water the tarmac/concrete/gravel drive and parking, I have to do it myself holding the sprayer, making sure all water goes to the base of the hedge and nowhere else!

Lots of rain here.
Am I the only gardener who absolutely never has a garden fire? Am I missing out on something?

Dad used to do lots of bonfires when I was growing up. I can see it would be useful to burn some of my allotment stuff (prunings mainly) but can’t do it!
Very little rain in London so far but looking forward to better conditions for working on the plot.

I mix the bonfire ashes with the compost from the bins once a year and spread it on my veg beds. There is going to be a LOT of ash this year It has already reached winter height! I may need to do something else with it at some point!

When i came back from my bike ride at 9:45, it was still bright and clear so i did some transplanting and then some watering. Light starting to get dim as i finished after half ten.
Some rain here, yesterday evening into today. 13mm recorded by local monitoring station. ⅔ of the way to April's total already.
