Another day of digging!!!!

A very tiring day involving lots of digging so I just thought I'd tell it in pictures...at least it will be better than reading a really boring post...that's right folks...you can look at one instead...LOL


weedy ground
So this is what I started with at 8:30 am.


cleared ground ready for digging
This is what was left after I cleared the weeds...now ot dig the spuds!!


Desiree poatatoes
The Desiree potatoes. Quite a good crop, not as many as the King Edwards but overall the potatoes are larger and will be good for baking.


Charlotte potatoes
A carrier bag full of Charlotte's..this came from the last 4 plants left in the ground.


winter dig and what left
This is what we have now!!!

So all in all a pretty productive day....Not much ground left to weed and dig now as you can see and I really feel like I have made excellent progress this year!!

I even taught Kate how to winter dig and the benefits of it...I guess there is hope for us all!!!

  3. If I did all that work in one day I would most likely spend the next day with my heating pad and doing a lot of moaning and groaning...lol
    You did good.
