  1. Don't bin those autumn leaves! ๐Ÿ‚ They're a free superfood for your veg garden. Use them as a winter mulch to suppress weeds, retain moisture & protect your soil. Or, add them to your compost heap to create nutrient-rich "black gold" for a bumper harvest next year.

  2. Popped some gardening content on TikTok and not a sausage. Not sure how you get things moving there but here's a link.

  3. Bed preparation for the new season in the #NoDig #VegPatch

    I harvested the last parsnips, celeriac and carrots, raked the beds over and covered with a few cm of green waste compost from the council (certified for organic horticulture).

    The new miditunnel was planted with garlic, lettuce, peashoots and pak choi.
    Because the tunnel is made really cheaply, I wanted to call it cheap tunnel. My wife insisted that I should use the term "miditunnel" instead as it is in size between my tunnel greenhouse and last years minitunnels.

    The original design of the tunnel wouldn't last a week in our climate. So I re-enforced the construction massively. Mostly I used stuff from last year's minitunnel.

    Need to get a few things more ready as I have to get some minor surgery done this week. After that, there may be a #gardening pause for a few days or weeks. โ˜น๏ธ

  7. I grew some leeks! Having this one in white sauce with baked gammon tonight. #Delicious #GrowYourOwn #VegPatch #Gardening

  8. Today's puny harvest. My crops from last season are so hilariously small. Couldn't feed a family of Borrowers. This year will be better, I tell you!

    (However, I do think a fancy restaurant would love these. Maybe I could start a micro-veg company).

    Trying to be self-sufficient with just a few types of vegetables on my tiny veg plot. Still keep referring this old 'Dig for Victory Leaflet No 1' to see how much more I could achieve.

  13. @spenbroc I was surprised to see kale on there. Itโ€™s one of my winter staples and favourite veg but I didnโ€™t have it down as a Dig for Victory veg. I thought it was a relatively recent introduction to our UK diets.

    Thank you, thatโ€™s one of my misconceptions put right. Always a good thing.
