Starting point. End point for today:

There has been lopping and sawing and cutting.

One of the mini-greenhouses was smashed beyond repair. I’ll finish assembling one single mini-greenhouse out of parts from two tomorrow. I got slowed down by discovering other jobs that needed doing along the way. All four apple trees are unexpectedly fruiting, so they needed weeding and mulching.

And, shockingly, the cherry tree is fruiting. I thought this was one of the figs at first, because I didn’t expect the cherry to live. I double checked with the plant app and it seems to be the cherry!

I also needed to attend to the berry plants – the strawberries are already starting to fruit. Seems I lost a few raspberry canes, and the peaches are probably beyond saving – they came out of dormancy too early so I couldn’t repot them, then they bloomed in fucking February, then it got cold again, and now they are confused and want to die. I intended to write tomorrow, but I need to repot some raspberry canes very fast, and some chives – just hoping I have enough compost left — and then feed everything.
