Try gardening 100 Days (except for very rainy days)Summary Notes
100 Day Gardening Challenge
I have decided to do some gardening every day for min 15 mins up to 1 hour a day.
If it is very rainy, I will skip the day but apart from that, I will try to stick to my challenge. Gardening includes weeding, mowing grass, etc.
My garden is a bit of state at the moment, and I will keep a record of my progress.
Below is the state of my garden right now. Full of moss, grass is grown a bit, a lot of weeds in the lawn.
Hopefully, at the end of 30 days, there will be some improvements.

Day 12
I haven't got any new plants to plant in the garden... So, I took some cuttings from lavender, and planted them in a pot.
I will see what happens. Hopefully they will grow.

Day 11
I moved a plant from a pot to the border.
Not much change to the garden yet... Grass is growing a bit but need to leave it for now as new grass needs to come out.
Progress Record
Day 10
splitted a plant into two, and planted them again.
Progress Record
Day 9
I just collected little rocks all over in the borders.
Progress Record
Day 8
I found these couple of nearly dead plants in pots by the side of my garden. I plant them as I cannot go buy new plants in a garden centre due to the Coronavirus lockdown.
This one must be a rose. It may survive, hopefully....
I don't know what the plant is below... It looks dead, but I planted it anyway to see if it comes back to life.
I also found this growing in the garden. I think this is a weed but my wife thinks it is a plant. I really wanted to pull it out. I will leave it for now. We will find out in a few weeks time.

Grass is not in a good state.
A lot of clovers and moss in the lawn
I need to do a lot of raking.
We collected some fallen leaves and dead branches.
Today basically I just did some weeding and collected some dead leaves.
Below is the result. Not much change but it is a start.
