Lol, I do hope you don't think we get better weather than you . Sleeping accommodation is... well, 'basic' might be over-stating things a bit - visitors get to sleep in the barn! But feel free! I could do with a bit of free consultancy! And the wine's cheap .

Although I have been really pleased with the results I have had so far this year, my best bed has got to be the SFG bed. Everything has been amazing & pest free. So much so that I am doing away with the allium bed next year and having 2 SFG beds as the present SFG bed has a boatload of onions, leeks & shallots in anyway so why do I need a seperate bed.. I think the results are more to do with the vast aray of companion plants as opposed to rotation. Anyway, back to the question in hand, my overwintering brassicas are going to go into the tattie bed as that will be my legume bed next year so shouldnt need it till around June by which time the spring greens hopefully should be out. Anything I can't plan will go in the SFG bed.

What's SFG BM? And here's me foolishly thinking I'd escaped acronyms when I escaped work and became a country-bumpkin-in-waiting... I'm sure I started planting things in my legume beds before June this year... maybe that's why my dwarf beans are all looking a bit sick! Lol . "Patience little one, patience..."
