Potatoes
Well my potatoes I sowed very late in the season are well above ground ( nearly a foot tall) so will hull up around them tomorrow and mulch well. Will post photos tomorrow. Have asked my Dad to bring as many bags of horse poo as he can each time he drives from Cordalba to Bundaberg. Also will order more mushroom compost to be delivered next time they have it. Mulch mulch and more mulch over summer. I cannot under plant until trees are bigger. On the bright side, my Moringa seeds are sprouting!!! So excited to watch these trees grow. My Dad ordered seeds online and gave me about 8 to plant. About half started to pop up yesterday. Am going to call into coffee shop we all use from work and see what they do with used coffee grounds. Thought might be useful addition to compost. Will let you know.
