The dates are printed on the picture. That was just before I put the plastic liner. I had burnt dry leaves to burn off the roots that may have been there, and removed the ash. Later, a layer of newspapers was spread all over and moistened. (They are all eaten up by the termites now) On top of it, the liner was spread.

I can tell you, that was a lot of work. The pit looks small, but the mud removed from there looked very voluminous!! It was more work spreading the mud around. I thought of digging another pit to put them in, but I dropped the idea!! LOL

That's my younger daughter standing there, in school uniform- that happens to be a Wednesday, so white uniform. Just before she left for school in the morning and I continued the garden work (as I had taken leave from office).
