Little tip for planting brassicas. Make sure the ground is hard try not to dig it over where you want to plant. The heads will form better . Great growing btw

Good info cheers

Hi Raf
found your channel from a comment you left on Graham's channel. What a fantastic channel for information and updates 😊 Liked and subscribed. I have a feeling I'm going to learn a lot here :)

Good looking seedlings. Ten PM and the sun just setting, here it is dark by 9 PM now.

planting crops for winter not many people do glad you are !!

Your plot's looking good Raf, those autumn / winter brassicas should do well, mine went in the weekend before last, although they look a bit smaller than yours. I'm also growing a lot of beetroot this year too, as we seem to be getting through it. Thanks for sharing.

You should get some chickens, They would love all those extra greens and you get amazing eggs out of it. It is very smart to grow things you know well be eaten.

You have done really well Raf. I am looking at your soil and wondering if a thick layer f mulch would help it. Maybe a load of Autumn leaves, straw or even the wood chips I use. I definitely think they would help you. As always this was a thorough video sharing all your experiences on the plot. Well done mate and all the best.

Hi Raf. Great harvest and hope all goes well with your winter Veg. Planted out some Savoy Cabbage in our backyard...you never know, it may work :'-) Lovely update Raf and Takes Care, Andy & Karen.

Hello Raf, another really good video my friend and thankyou for sharing your knowledge and skills.

😆 Happy growing,
Terry.

awesome harvest, my freezer is quickly filling up with runner and dwarf french beans :) I haven't sown my winter cabbage seeds yet but I have until the end of the month. Are you overwintering any onions?

Hi Raf,nice update with great produce.Would it be possible to give us some details of how you use your beetroot as it is always nice to try new things.I love pickled beetroot,but I would love to try your cuisine.
Thanks Raf,all the best Jane.

Great to see you planning for winter crops

Good video as always. Good crop on the way - Always love your videos, plenty of tips. Take care. Graham

Looks amazing!! What a great harvest! I am starting my spring sowing this weekend of tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, basil, marigolds, zinnias. I need to transplant a few cabbages, and I will direct sow arugula and radishes. At the moment I am harvesting peas, lettuce, parsley, chives, oregano, and swiss chard . I have three rather small raised beds in my garden and only half of their length gets sun light in winter

a great update a usual, I'm just starting my seeds for late winter - spring as its to hot to grow during summer here. as always waiting for the next update. Have a great day!
