  • Hi Maz,

    Please may I have your 12month guide? It sounds wonderful
    I've been growing for 2 years and am on a waiting list for an allotment.
    But I always forget to do things in advance...that's why I ended up with no Brussels sprouts this year and mini sweetcorn!

    Ah well!

    Thanks in Advance!

  • For those of you without MS Excel you can download the free Excel reader from Microsoft. This means that you can see and print the plans but not edit them.

    I thought that this might help some of you realise what is possible with a little bit of effort. This is taken from the one and only gardening magazine i would ever buy 'Kitchen Garden' and is what you can have in December grown outside. I hope this helps to motivate you to save lots of cash. I'm also going to add it to the first post.

    What you can expect to harvest from your veg plot in December -saving loads of cash

    Winter cabbage
    Savoy cabbage
    Kale
    Early sprouting broccoli
    Brussel sprouts
    Leeks
    Carrots
    Spinach
    Swede
    Celeriac
    Celery
    Jerusalem artichokes
    Chinese artichokes
    Chard
    Winter cauliflowers
    Parsnips
    Salsify
    Scorzonera

    whilst in store you have potatoes,onions,shallots,beetroot,turnips,more swede and carrots.

    In addition you fill have a freezer full of fruit, beans, peas, tomato sauce, peppers
    Kind Regards
    Maz
