Hives have mostly gone today. Still kinda itchy but no longer horrible.
Tried to char some wood shavings today, but you know, it was causing such a lot of smoke that I just couldn't help it and I prematurely killed it, again, and so only got a partial charring. Of course when this happens and you have a big mixture of uncharred and charred material, you don't have a soil amendment. So, I thought about using it as mulch somewhere and then I just thought, fucket, I've got some goat shit over there and some other shit over there, and I ended up spending most of the day making compost. Actually made two piles by the time I was finished.
Cut down the dead coconut by the garden and tried to burn it, but I had used most of the handy fuel trying to char the woodshavings, so I don't know I didn't have a hot enough or big enough fire I guess. Of course, a freshly cut palm is basically a bunch of water, so I shouldn't be too suprised I guess. Hopefully roasting on the coals over night will take care of any fungal spores. Man, the rotten core really stunk... Gotta get some rock phosphate and spread it around...
