Simon Forman<p>Compost worms are aquatic!</p><p>This is (I believe) an Eisenia foetida (red wiggler compost worm) living in the soil and gravel substrate of a fish aquarium I set up a couple of months ago.

Siobhán Greaney (Shivers)<p>Advice sought from those who do <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/NoMowMay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoMowMay</span></a> - or know about <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Rewilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rewilding</span></a> gardens. Does the no mowing include before May - so that you leave it fallow until at least June? Or would the garden benefit from a trim in March/April if dry enough to mow? (If we do ever get a couple of dry days in a row here in the West of Ireland.) Conflicting advice in the past, especially from my pro-mowing partner. Aim to encourage wildflowers for pollinators.<br>Also tagging <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/compostodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>compostodon</span></a> as potential fonts of knowledge 🌼</p>
Pete Ashton<p>Thanks to some help from Laura’s muscles we started spreading the mature <a href="https://social.coop/tags/compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>compost</span></a> onto the beds today. It looks great.

MostlyTato<p>The allotment continues to cook its materials over the winter. The compost and leaf crate are both full, as is the comfrey bin.<br>I also got given a mini greenhouse thingy, but so far the only use for it I've found is to store bought compost that I've been paid in kind with.<br>It always amazes me how such a large volume of material transforms into a relatively small amount of compost. Its an amazing process though.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/allotment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>allotment</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>compost</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/compostodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>compostodon</span></a></p>

Dash<p>I'm not sure that shovelling compost around is part of the traditional observance of <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Samhain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Samhain</span></a> amongst our Celtic neighbours, but it feels fairly appropriate for the day.</p><p>The garden has given to us throughout the lighter half of the year.
