Hi Folks,
Well today I continued work on Section 6 of the garden.
From past experience, I know that when clearing a border and starting from scratch again, you have to be very thorough; in order to make sure no weed roots survive and come back to haunt you.
So when digging I firstly dug to a spade depth, completing a row at a time. I would then turn the soil over and break the weeds up and remove them from the soil. Once I had completed a meter squared section of the garden, I then raked the area; once again removing any weed roots as I went. Finally, I forked the area and turned the soil once again, picking all the remaining weed roots I could find. I then raked the area again and placed black building material over the whole area. This prevents anymore weeds growing again whilst I work on the next square meter area.
Oncce the section is complete I will take some more pictures.
Also as I have been digging I have been removing the fence panels, as they have rotted away and need replacing.
