    Thanks guys!
    I really do intent to carry it on, it is truly remarkable.. ive never had spring onions or lettuces like it!
    Most things are a little behind this year.
    Unfortunately now the blight has already reared its ugly head..

    Once you get into no-dig it really does work, most of my weeds are self seeded flowers especially poppies and violas.
    Nice looking cauliflower

    Glad you're enjoying no-dig and getting good results Cptn. We had a good first year when we turned over to no-dig, this is our 6th year in and still finding every year gets better and better. The lack of weeding alone gives so much more time to do the fun stuff and crops can be grown closer together so yields are higher.
    Nice looking caullies you've got there..

    Cracking results too..

    Wow, it really is amazing to look back at the photos of when we first got our plot, here's a throwback to summer 2020.. it was a good year for growing if nothing else..

    ^Yes, and they're a lovely colour too. So clearly very healthy.

    For the size of the plant.. probably not, although each plant produced around 6-10 cobs it and they were far superior to shop bought bendy things.. it just seemed an awful lot of plant for not a lot of return!?
