00048 SeptTells hardy crops from tender onesPicked courgettes as the tender crop in Lesson 3, planned garlic for this autumn and courgettes for after the last frost, and recalled the 10 to 15 cm compost layer from Lesson 2.
00035 SeptThought a new bed must be dug over firstIn Lesson 2 chose turning the soil over as the way to start a bed on lawn. The explanation corrected it: cardboard and compost on top smother the grass, and worms do the mixing.
