Sunshine in Cornwall before the school holidays started – it was bliss! I picked up a copy of your salad leaves for all seasons whilst visiting Heligan and wanted to say thanks for writing it as it’s such a good book. It’s full of useful info and I’m going to be using it a lot.
I’ll plant the brassicas just as soon as we get some rain, though here in Switzerland it’s likely to stay hot. I’m planning to set up some shading but have also read that you can cut some of the leaves and so reduce water loss – does that help?
I might try sowing some more seed as well, just in case.
