Hi,
Thanks for this info Pete, it is most helpful. I like your way of growing green manures in neat rows to aid maintenance re: weeds. Did you arrive on your crop sequences thru personal experimentation or were you influenced by something you read or heard – I wonder why these particular choices?
Since my last post, the idea of under-growing green manures and of path carpets of clover etc. I figure they would increase slug habitats and not give significant yields. However, planting full beds with varied choice varieties makes sense, providing you already have space for all your required second veg’ crops! Edible green manures and comfrey also sound like good possibilities, so thanks again.
‘The Dowding Sprint’ has a reasonable ring to it. If it matured in time for beans for drying to follow, I guess Gill and myself would be customers…..
