Planted where we buried the worm farm after the heat wave disaster. Result is rich beautiful soil full of compost. Lets see how it goes!
Harvested in September – enormous radishes!
Probably had been in for too long but they made fine space holders and seem to have distracted the garden guests (slugs and catapillars).
