@spenbroc @pawsforthought you are quite welcome, on this profile I talk about how to make #CompostAthome because it is something everyone can do especially if they are concerned for the #climate.

@Hesperalis Oh, that Sylva Grow is expensive but peat compost shouldn’t be sold at all. It certainly shouldn’t be sold cheaper than the peat free alternatives. #Allotment #PeatFree #Compost #GrowYourOwn

@graftandspur Yes, ryegrass will over winter here. So far mustard has been the next hardiest. I was hoping the oats would over winter with the rye but they haven’t.
I grow a diverse cover crop mix from Sept and let their biomass cover the ground and feed the soil biology.
As it’s too warm for Jan some clover and phacelia may start to come through now. The only plants I have growing at the moment are the perennials, teasel, ryegrass and the bulbs. #Zone9a #Allotment #CoverCrops #GreenManures

@Hesperalis That schedule makes sense.
Useful information I gleaned from John Kempf’s brilliant Regenerative Agriculture podcast with Harriet Mella https://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/episode-71-harriet-mella was the best uptake for foliar feed (from sap analysis) is the week before the full moon. The least advantageous time is the week of the new moon.
I dabble in a bit of #RegenAg #KNF, #permaculture, #biodynamics.
When Spring arrives I’ll be making some IMO2 in the fridge into IMO3 with bran & then IMO4 with soil.

@sam I am so sorry your wife and her colleagues have been so badly treated and left in this impossible situation. #NHSStrikes #NurseStrikes #FairPayForNursing #RCNStrike #solidarity

I harvested half of my Yacon plants before the worst of the hard frosts hit this week. I split a couple of plants and replanted and mulched them with wood chip. I hope they survive. I’ve also stored a dozen growing tips for potting on in spring. Guessing I have about 25 kg of tubers. #Allotment #Gardening #Yacon

CW: UK NURSES STRIKE
@nhsactivistrn I support you 100% Siobhan. “We care for the nation but who cares for the carers? “ Who indeed?
I’ve donated so one striking nurse can be reimbursed £50 through the RCN Strike Benefit for the industrial action taking place on 15th December. If we want to keep the NHS going we have to help you fight for it. Thank you and your colleagues for all you do.
