  • The Three Ps - Plant, Pick, Process!

    A quick record of what you've done today. No need for chat, just 3 words are enough
    Plant = what you've sown or planted today
    Pick = what you've picked today
    Process = what you've done with your pickings.

    For example -

    Plant - Dragon's Egg Cucumbers
    Pick - Mangetout Bijou & Radish
    Process - Salad & Stirfry

                  Did do a load of shredding of Beech leaves and twigs, collected some manure, fed and watered the contents of the greenhouse.(so not a complete wasted day)
                  Feed the soil, not the plants.
