Hello,
I am sort-of new-ish in home gardening, having embraced for now 3 years after being more of a city man.
I was reading Charles Dowding’s book on “Winter Gardening”, including his advice on not worrying too much on crop rotation.
One question, I have is what happens if a piece of land has a summer crop and winter crops. Will it lose nutrients short term, or do you have to keep adding manure at the end of the 2 seasons crops? Or would it be good to keep the land fallow (ie – no crops on winter) eveyr other year?
Thank you for any ideas or experience.
