I have also come to the conclusion that I do not have enough space to grow as many brassicas as I would like, so this year I am trying some smaller varieties; cauliflower (fremont), broccoli (matsuri) and cabbage (caraflex).
Back in October I sowed some broad beans for the first time; this was shortly after they'd poked through the compost
after a couple more weeks
and today
I have never been a fan of broad beans, so this is another of my "if I grow it, I might like it" experiments.
Other than those few changes, everything else I intend to grow remains the same.
This year I am also going to weigh and price up everything that I harvest, just to see what value can be attached to it. I won't include things that were grown for last season, like these last few potatoes that I uncovered today
or the remaining leeks and parsnips that I still have in the ground. In a week or two I will start sowing... bring on the new season.
