They also said the warning about poor storage of Japanese Onions was a gardener's myth; provided they aren't fed and watered they get tough enough, harvested end June, to last until the following March. In other words, ignore the advice on the seed packet ;D

Hi! Um, so what about crop rotation? I understand the bit about planting broad beans as a means to improve the soil over winter, but, do you do cover the whole plot?

Sorry, confused.
