Fabulous post. I dropped my phone in the comfrey tea the other day.. had to throw the cover out as it stank like hell, as did my arm from reaching in there๐ phone survived though ๐
I just got rid of three hop bines, they were taking over my garden.. but left one.
Jealous of your weed matting... Must save you so much work in long run.
Off to fertikise my garlic .. thanks for the reminder!!
Oh slimetopia scented NO! I mean, comfrey is so magical, lol, just soaked into the ground, not us LOL! Glad the phone made it!
There is definitely a reason I only planted the two bines, didn't want a hops forest throughout the garden lol!
The landscape fabric is the absolute best! I am pretty sure I am going to have to replace it eventually, as the UV rays of our big orb do break it down over time, but I just love that I kept something from going to the landfill and put it to work in a good way!
And I hope your garlic bulbs get GARGANTUAN!
Thanks for stopping by!๐
Because I read your post, I went and fertilising them!
What will you use the hops for?
Nice!
I love hops tea! So medicinal and tasty, and my hubs brews all sorts of beer (and wine and all manner of fermented drink) throughout the year, so I am excited to have home-grown hops of our own for him to experiment with!
Oh it's amazing as a tea isn't it? I have meditator friends that don't touch alcohol or any intoxicant but they drink hops tea so strong it'd make your face pucker up. I like it watered down in a chamomile/lavender/tulsi/rose blend I make. It's the best! WE started it for booze but never used it for that, only to calm ournevous system down. It's the best think for migraines, you know when you get a little panicky coz of the pain and can't sleep? A hops and chamomile with honey helps take the edge off.
