What can follow...............
« on: July 11, 2006, 21:03:14 »
my onions
my potatoes
broad beans
Being new to allotment growing im not quite sure what i can use these beds for after each of the above.I have already planted out my brussels calabrese and cabbages in my brassica bed so i cant see how i can follow the spuds or onions with more brassicas as this will mean i have brassicas spread throughout my plot which means i cant rotate properly.Any advice is gratefully recieved.Thankyou.

Well, what I am doing is following my onions with pumpkins - but these were overwintered onions so they were lifted in June.  Leeks are following my spuds and I have sown carrots for Christmas where my broadies were.

My rotation plan always leaves a lot to be desired - for me, so long as next year the main groups move on a half plot, I am happy...I think... :-\
