Garden Update February 2015

What is happening in the garden…

The last of the mulberrys are being harvested this month as the fig and pomegranate take over supplying us with their fruits.

It is a good time to apply horn manure, make compost, transplant seedlings, pruning, wine racking and harvesting for storage from the 1st-7th and the 21st-28th of February. This is a descending or waning period and is influenced by the earth and water signs. From the 8th-20th of February it will be a good time to apply horn silica, plant seeds, graft and harvest for early consumption. This is an ascending or waxing period and is influenced by air or fire signs.

WE ARE CURRENTLY HARVESTING…
Aubergine, capsicum, rocket, beetroot, zucchini, swiss chard, salad greens, mulberry, figs, radish, spring onion, tomatoes, herbs, edible flowers.

If anyone has any queries in regards to the garden, please feel welcome to ask… Cheers, Jaimie
