I would give them a feed.  For me that would be pelleted chicken manure to replace the nitrogen washed out of the soil over winter, but you could use any general fertiliser if you don't have these.

It is nothing serious and they will green up and grow once fed  :)

Do you need to work the pellets into the soil, or just sprinkle about?

Best to hoe them in a bit for the best and quickest results, especially when there's not much rain about.
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

I almost watered them at the weekend, I can't believe how dry everything is.
