Update on My Gardening Exploits
In April, when the moon was waxing, I planted 4 rows of potatoes of about 6ft long, and already plants have sprouted, thanks to the rain we've been having lately. I have also planted 2 rows of onion sets and some of them are sprouting nicely. I took 3 cuttings of our Rosemary plant from the front garden and they are in a pot covered with a plastic bag to hopefully take root in another 4 weeks or so. Our neighbour, Tom, kindly gave me 3 cuttings of mint that have rooted, adn I transplanted them into the herb garden, and I have also sowed mint seed in a tray. The grass has been rapidly growing due to the rain and warmer weather, and I'm having to cut the grass once a week, in between rain showers. And of course a Triple Goddess sacred space (more on that on the next page). So it's been a busy New Moon month past and the forthcoming month is set to be just as busy, quite apt for the New Moon of the Bee. |
