Hello everyone, the weekend is here and there is time to do stuff!
Now you know those time managemet courses we have all done and read about on proscrastination? Well I would fail miserably on any test!
Way back in May I asked this question and I STILL HAVE NOT DONE a couple of the jobs I meant to do then ... now that has to be something else and procrastination mixed up with 'past sell by and use by' date fertilisers!
Well, the first is not even a difficult job but it is to clean some ceramic containers, scrape them down, soak them in vinegar water for a day or two then after they are dry, repaint them and put them to use again. The shapes are nice and classic (one a tall Ali Baba/oil style jar pot) and several other planters and smaller pots mixed.
Just have to get on and do it - and I am determined to do the cleaning etc this weekend and will paint them next weekend. I don't even have an excuse darn it - the job just hasn't been done.
Next job that must be done is to go over my notes in my gardener's notebook that I have been making willy nilly and put them into a semblence of order.
Next after that is to repot my cotainer irises - didn't get blooms this year because they are sulking I guess. Oh dear. The ones I have in the front garden performed beautifully which make me even more remiss.
Other than just getting on and doing it, I don't think there is any advice I can offer to others of you who may be putting off jobs in your container gardens.
If you have any quick tips or tricks or shortcuts or comments, that would be helpful!
Say thanks and cheers
