Has anyone else had the same experience as me this year ie. Bumper Crops (apart from swede) Brassicas have grown beyond all expectations. Parsnips need a JCB to get them out and leeks nearly as thick as my wrist.
I think every seed in two 10 metre rows of carrots came good and I'll be eating carrots until I turn orange. We've fed ourselves off the garden since April and still have loads to take us through the winter. So have I had a lucky year or was there something special about the weather.

I have fabulous cabbages (been eating them for months), the best parsnips ever, amazing leeks but totally useless beans this year. Other stuff was much as usual.

Overall a very good year.

Overall a good year for the limited time available to me at the moment. I think i am going to look at my planting plan and organise my respite care for my elderly mum when it looks busiest in the garden
