Sweetcorn Update

Here are the sweetcorn ready to go in...
First I took off the groundcover...

...then I dug over the bed and sprinkled it with chicken manure pellets...

...then I planted the sweetcorn through the holes...here's hoping for an Indian Summer!

I like the idea of a black plastic mulch! I've seen it lots of different places - seems like a good idea, but how do you water? is it porous?

Yep - it's porous - but it still stops the ground from drying out - brilliant eh?
