Keep on Digging...

Up early for a 7-bag treehouse crop.

A fresh batch of stinky nettle juice and another 10 metres of beds dug over on the hottest day yet - 37 degrees in the Marquee and about 24 outside.
Continued digging out new beds outside. Very hot, big tan, burnt my back. Ouch.
Began testing soapy-water spray on indoor salad to combat greenfly and aphids. Mixture possibly too weak and/or Ecover washing liquid is not strong enough. Will try stronger batch tomorrow.
I recruited some Ladybirds from the infested flower outside and brought them into the Marquee in a glass cup. They immediately stared bonking whilst in the cup! The more the merrier...
