The Winter brassicas are really thriving and with the protection of the new fruit cages and a good dose of slug pellets we hope they'll remain healthy until they're ready to eat.
We've been enjoying the leeks already, and the remaining ones should continue to grow a while longer before reaching their potential.
Martin and Paul gave me a big hand yesterday with a load of manure which Martin had fetched in a trailer from the place where Kay's sister keeps her horse. We've never had such a good consignment of manure so I'll make every effort to prepare the ground and spread the manure over it before winter comes.
