Tasks for November

Pick any remaining apples and prepare them for winter storage in a cool, dry place, and inspect regularly.

Check guttering/drains and keep them clear.

On dry breezy days continue to cut lawns with mower blades set high.

Try to avoid walking on grass when the weather is frosty.

Begin to collect fallen leaves, and store them in a bin bag or a container made from chicken wire, in a corner of the garden and will turn into leafmold in 18 months.

Top dress borders with well rotted farmyard manure, or garden compost.

Your local recycling centre may be able to provide compost at low cost.
