<\/a><\/p>\nBeech Hedge taken by Jon Fowler<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
At 7:22 this morning, the trench was approached and we lay out each \u201cwhip\u201d ready to be propped up and filled in with earth.\u00a0 (Apologies for the photo, it\u2019s from a Windows 10 tablet\u2026\u00a0 I was in a hurry this morning, but managed to squeeze in a shower, putting away all the equipment and breakfast before getting to work in time to host my 9:30 stand-up this morning in the office, sort out my blood sugar, plug in the car and protect my RSI).\u00a0 One person propping and the other shovelling earth was surprisingly quick.<\/p>\n
It has to be mentioned that my man disappeared three-quarter\u2019s of the way through to determine he had a sprint he had to attend at 8:30.\u00a0 He did\u00a0return\u00a0so only a couple were done in his absence.\u00a0 We did the rest\u00a0 I was able to\u00a0finish shovelling and heeling in without him.<\/p>\n
Last weekend, my husband and I had worked out that the only way we could ensure the whips would have the best chance of survival on their arrival yesterday was to prep during the weekend.\u00a0 So on a dull (alright raining) Sunday afternoon, my man and I dug a trench.\u00a0 We put the dirt on a tarpaulin ready for the off on Friday morning.<\/p>\n
It looks OK, hopefully it will all turn out alright in six months time when we\u2019ll see if our approach worked.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
