Hello and welcome to Tuesday 7 October 2025. Good news: my dog now has super sparkly white teeth and my very poorly hen, Mo, has made a miraculous recovery after surgery. What a relief.Lots of activity on the plot including spreading some of my black-gold compost onto the newly prepared beds (compost is one thing I am actually really good at making) and this homemade compost will really help improve the soil. I've been busy making a new path to run down the centre of the plot so I don't have to keep brushing past plants and knocking into flowers.The first part of my latest 2026 order has arrived! I've been planting the (massive) plugs out temporarily until I can get them a proper home on the plot this autumn. They look excellent so I have high hopes for them. Finally I'm pondering selling to retail in 2026: if you're a regular listener you'll know that I've avoided this so far but I'm not sure I can avoid it any longer. The plot has to make more money to be viable and I'm not sure that doing exclusively wholesale is going to work. I shall be pondering this for a while...Please come back and join me for the next episode on Friday when I'll have more news about what's happening on the cut flower plot.
