Hi from Shetland

[Bonnieisle]

Hi everyone!

I am David and live on a island of mainland Shetland called whalsay! Have been growing are own veg for a couple of years but still very much new to the game!

Am going to try using biodinamic practice on my plot and following the calander see how it goes.

Will be asking you all lots of questions
Thanks
David

Hello David and welcome to the forum! Can you actually grow anything up there on the beautiful Shetlands.

Haha it is a challange but yes! we have a short season but in hight of summer it never gets dark so plenty of growing light! And peat soil but the winds are the biggest problem

Have grown great garlic for the last few years and carrots, onions, kale and leeks have all done well
