Planted on the shortest day, ready to pick on the longest day. That's the country way of thinking so in they went yesterday.
Shortest day!!!!
Were you aware that this year you planted out on the;
21st day of the 21st year of the 21st century now there is a piece of folklore for you Ace
I hope you and Morris men were out celebsrting that once in a lifetime event!
Won't manage that again!
Didn't look at my watch but was planting about midday so some might have been planted about 12.21, 21 12 21 :sunny:
I grow Longor shallots which I always planted in April as per suppliers advice. Last year I planted in November the same time as my garlic and I have had the best crop that i have ever produced. I have kept my own seeds for many years as suppliers are now too expensive with the quantity that I set. I have had no deterioration in quality over the years but last years planting was certainly the best.
