  • This kinda thing is why I am planting a lot to work out what actually grows well here.

    Broadbeans did, then they got a fungal infection and died off before growing many pods at all. Garlic grew and then decided to barely do anything and get mouldy. Radishes got filled with maggots.

    Goosefoot grows everywhere regardless of if I want it or not so I am just going to call it perennial spinach and hope to encourage it to grow larger leaves.

    Rhubarb seems to be something that grows well so I recently started that and plan to turn it into wine and jam as well just so I can make use of it all if I get quite a few of them growing.

    Jerusalem artichokes seem to be doing well but not time to harvest yet.

    I think perennials are the way, need more of them.
