"I planted some nipples and I’m hoping for a booby tree. Bound to work." You need plenty of fertiliser for the biggest boobs. | |||

"I have made a start I sprayed my wife's Lady garden with killer in the hope of stopping any growth next year and I put mulch around my sapling and I'm hoping that it will grow into a beautiful Cock tree in the spring " I hope the spray was organic | |||

"I really like Huw Richard's Allotment Self Sufficiency Garden on YT. Getting to there is aways off sadly, it's such a cool project." Oh I’ve not seen that! I’ll have to look it up | |||

"I'm cutting back this year. I had such a poor harvest last year that I lost interest a bit. Tomatoes, cucumbers, runner beans, courgettes and the fruit from the figs, apples, pears and plums plus a few soft fruits. The fruit needs no effort from me so doesn't really count. " I know that feeling! I’m mainly just feeding the slugs at this point. But I shall persevere. My fig tree in the garden really took off last year and I got a few figs, but then the puppies absolutely trashed it 🙄 | |||

I’ll have to look it up " He has a really cool book on the topic as well. It's a brillant project - quite literally enough food for 5 people in a year (if you were a veggie or vegan) in a very small space. He uses succession planting to achieve it and 4 hours per week on a super rigorous schedule. | |||

This year I spent ages putting little draw string bags on the fifty largest figs (how to say you're retired without saying you're retired 😅) and was rewarded with a great harvest. | |||

"ive recently just put garlic outside, not sure how well it will do but we will see." Garlic seems to be the only crop I grow successfully every year. Fingers crossed for yours | |||

My allotment is small but I can spare 4 hours a week (I should be outside more) Would be very nice to be veggy self sufficient | |||

"Allotments here overrun with deer and newbie plot holders obsessed with 'wilding' projects. Getting harder to grow fruit + veg. That said, will persevere with the staples plus a few unusuals like Okra, Chillies, heritage Winter Squash." Do you grow the chillies outside? | |||

"we have never had much luck with our garlick, but this tear tried starting it off in greenhouse, put half of it out rest is still in the greenhouse for now, even got white rot in them last year" That sucks! Nothing worse than seeing your whole crop go down. I always seem to get blight on my tomatoes. I was garlic self sufficient for a while (planting what I grew) but last years bulbs were small, so back to buying seed garlic. | |||

"I grow a good few, less these last few years because of time. Next thing up will be asparagus 😋 Always do cucumbers, corgettes and broccoli. Nothing exciting 🙄 Last year my strawberries spread so well but barely a strawberry off them. Any tips gratefully received. Mostly new plants in a permanent raised bed??? 🥺" My bed took a good couple of years before getting a decent harvest. All I do with strawbs is put straw all around them in spring, they tend to look after themselves now. And all homegrown veg is exciting | |||
