Move perennials, transplanted some strawberries, built a cold frame and moved composted horse and cow manure to fill it, then a layer of old straw, then a top layer of potting soil.  Need to put some hoops over it and plant it next.

Chopped back most of my tomatoes, just a few plants left now with tomatoes just needing to ripen fully and some small cucumbers on two plants which am hoping will grow.
Done really well with tomatoes eventually with the sunshine.

Took down all the plastic growing houses. They are now in the garage ready for winter. I've got some beetroot and butternut squash left to harvest before i'll dig the patch over and manure. Cleaned up outside.
Winter is on the way, lets hope for some proper cold dry winter weather rather than warm and wet!

Sprayed my Brussels sprouts with diluted washing up liquid to deter the whitefly.
Grabbed some beetroot and collected garlic and onions from shed.
Realised I have a lot of work to do to tidy up for winter😱😱

Repairing structures as well as clearing and tidying away things before the winter.
Weeding

[Lardman]

Finally made a couple of hours to spend in the garden  on tier 3 

Weeded around the apple trees.
Cut back the last of the asparagus, weeded and dug over the bed they were covering.
Weeded the asparagus bed itself.
Weeded around the blueberry bushes.
Weeded and dug over the tomato bed; so many bindweed roots   

I've not done much weeding this year and it really shows, I expect I'll be suffering for it next year too when all the seeds germinate. 

My 'to-do' list looks far more manageable now and most if it needs to be done when the plants have gone dormant.  Needless to say things look at better now too 

[chillimummy]

Managed couple of hours at plot in the sunshine. Dug up and weeded area of my last row of desiree potatoes Some were slug damaged but eventually got reasonable amount.
Dug over last bit where my blackcurrant bushes had been and now large area dug over and looking better.
Have large bonfire to burn of weeds, rasperries and potatoe and foliage.
Haven't managed to get to plot much last few months but each time I go, manage to get a lot done so happy at plot looking ok.
Pulled up green beans so that is next bit to dig over and weed ready for my autumn red onions and garlic.
Picked some turnip with no slug holes  and fennel and my first cabbage finally.

Harvested the beetroot, and the last of the onions.

Rearranging cattle panel trellises today to make a hoop house/field house for growing winter greens.  Beets and turnips are up, will be using those tops for salads this winter if they grow well. 

Carrots are up, but the romaine is dragging behind. 

Still have strawberries coming on, as well as a few green and jalapeno peppers.  Haven't had a hard frost yet this year, so I guess things will hang on until then.

Not been able to get to the for a month since I hurt my back at work. Spent a few hours at the plot yesterday and got quite a surprise. It looked ok, maybe because of all the work I have done this year keeping it weed free. All year, if I am not weeding I am digging it over. So when I got there yesterday I pleased to see not many weeds at all.
I cleared all the Toms and the last of the Sweetcorn. Dug up a bag of spuds as well. Still got quite a few spuds left in, will get them in a few weeks. Strimmed all the paths before I left, until the strimmer line ran out. Had good few hours. As the weather looks good for the week, I will go after work this week while I am on earlies.

Hope your back is better, Miggs.  I haven't been to my plot either for a while - backache removing old pond and surrounding rockery prior to replacing with larger pond. Didn't realise Derbyshire Gritstone came in such big lumps 
Anyway, today I managed to obtain some bags of manure and have taken it to the lottie so now will have to make the effort to go and spread it Have to say I am feeling a wee bit guilty when I read of how everyone else is working so hard.

[miggs]

As the back is a lot better now, just got home after visiting the plot after work. Dug up the last of the spuds and did some general tidying up. Started to dig the edges of some of the other beds. Like I said earlier the beds have stayed soft, because all year if I am not weeding I am digging the beds. Now to prepare the bed for my winter Onion sets.

[AussieInFrance]

Miggs, have you considered adapting your gardening to a 'no-dig' method?

It would surely save you pain and discomfort.

My experience is that back injury, once incurred, will return whenever you're not looking. Remember that digging over your garden just brings weed seeds to the surface, rather than them remaining a non-issue when underground as they haven't germinated.

Food for thought, perhaps......

[Flowertot]

Over the last 2 days I have cleared away the climbing bean wigwams and the finished pumpkin and courgette plants and dug over/weeded the 2 large beds they were in. Much tidier 

[Hampshire Hog]

Just dug over weedy raised bed with remnants of courgette plants. Rather too much couch grass lurking in the bed for my liking going to drown them before composting. Covered bed with black plastic to prevent further weed germination. Then collected some more autumn raspberries still amazingly producing.
Cheers HH
Lots more to do!!!
