Night gardening

My preferred gardening time seems to be about 4.30pm. Unfortunately it starts to get dark about 5pm. Today I was planting some dog deterring herbs along the footpath (after watching a dog _on a leash_ crapping in my front garden). Luckily the light of the street light was enough to get the job done.
It's going to look lovely when the plants have spread and flowered their little purple flower.

I've covered my celery with clear plastic and held it all down with old pavers, a dead tree fern and a concrete tortoise.

I've watered my brassilicas, the ones surviving the bug attack, peas, celery, silverbeet, camillias, rhododendrons, and anti dog herbs with seaweed extract.

I've dug in my wheat and mustard.

Now it's 6.30, dark, I stink like seaweed, and it's time for hot chip sandwiches for tea.

Good day. I love gardening. (Who would have thought?)
