🌱We're probably looking here at three and a half thousand seedlings. How can that be possible in such a relatively small space? It's to do with the trays partly. 🌿

🌱Vegetables that don't give so much weight include leeks, spinach and the lowest yield of all is dry beans, but that's because they're dry. 🌱

🌱This bed is one of my favourite beds at Homeacres because it's not big, it's 1.3 by 2.2 metres and every year I crop it with a diverse range of vegetables.

🌱These are so interesting. Kalettes, little buttons coming up the stem, they grow like brussels sprouts, except that it's that beautiful kale floret and colour.🌱

🌱There's a lot of seeds you can sow in June, but only a few I'd particularly recommend. 🌿

🌱The success of being able to maximise space and interplanting is partly down to no dig, it makes it possible because we're hardly needing to weed.🌱

🌱Starting out with no dig. You can put cardboard on the weeds, compost on top of the cardboard, and then you can sow in plants straight away. 🌿

🌱So it's been an interesting summer, weather wise, for growing vegetables, quite challenging. But some notable successes actually have been perennial vegetables from seed.🌱

🌱Regular picking is an opportunity also to remove older leaves🌱

🌱Pretty systematically I'll cover small plants because there are rabbits here and a little seedling like that can disappear very quickly.🌱

🌱Picking in August of leafy vegetables like chard can be amazingly productive. One plant can give you so much🌿
