Preparing The Flower Garden For My Summer Holidays

I am going away for almost 6 weeks, in the middle of June, just as everything should be blooming, but I don't want to miss all the flowers I have babied over the winter and planned and worked so hard for, so I am prepping the garden to try and delay flowering and hopefully return to lovely just blooming flowers and not just a huge patch of weeds.

I'm Pheigi at From The Witch's Garden, a Scottish girl trying to grow cut flowers on my allotment in Kanagawa prefecture in Japan. Remember to subscribe if you want to follow along and see if we actually get any flowers at the end of the season or if it is all a crispy burnt mess.
