It's done.

Finally, the gardening project I've been working on since the start of December is complete with everything I have available (still waiting on two citrus trees).

120+ plants (of which ~90 are chillies). At least a couple of hundred meters of piping have been laid for the irrigation system. Also then extended the irrigation system to also include the two garden beds and solve a pressure problem in zone 1 with an additional output.

So many hours. Now I just need to tidy up, but that can wait until the New Year right?

Edit: forgot to add that as a renter and not technically able to make holes etc the project had significant additional complexity (I should also add our landlords are lovely and defo wouldn't have minded some drilling, but I know they'd have been round helping do everything if I asked about drilling holes)
