Lessons Learnt and Put in Place in 2009.

So as I mentioned there were plenty of lessons I learnt from the 2008 growing season and now is as good a time as any to put them into place.

• Plan earlier.
• Start sowing earlier and think about staggering the sowing (although this didn't work a jot with broadies as they all ended up cropping together).
• Feed, feed and feed some more.
• Make the brussels bed a bit more firmer.
• Move the beans from their usual spot.
• Don't bother with tomatoes outside - waste of time as it ALWAYS rains in July!
• Don't bother with aubergines as the weather is never hot enough!
• Pick things and don't let them go to seed e.g. radishes growing two foot tall.

So only a few lessons then...
