Growing Organic Vegetables

This website's objective is to show how nutrient dense, healthy, organic vegetables are grown sustainably in my garden. All the vegetables I grow are described including how seeds are propagated and plants grown. Pest control, crop harvesting and food preservation are described where relevant. My methods are no-dig using homemade compost as a top dressing to maintain soil health and an ideal environment in which to grow vegetables...........................John Ashworth. 29th April 2019.

January 2015

Happy new year everyone. Its early January and our first 41 deg C maximum is forecast for tomorrow. I will run the drip irrigation tonight and all the Ecobed water tanks were filled yesterday. The lettuce and cabbage are heavily protected with 75% shadecloth, but the legumes and solanaceae will have to manage without. At least they will all have plenty of water.
