30th June No Dig Tour of amazing cucurbits, seed saving, rabbit protection, potato harvests

Strong plant growth, thanks to warm weather and the no dig method. I maintain fertility through a 2.5cm / 1in compost mulch applied just once a year. Many first plantings we make in early spring are now finishing their harvests. I show you my current succession sowings in the greenhouse, to keep beds full of vegetables. Weather background Just 28mm rain fell in June, compared to the average 65mm. Temperatures were day maxima 23.7C, nights 11.5C, warmer than usual, plus there was more sun than we normally see. We have watered a lot with the hose, mainly new plantings, lettuce, and plants that are fruiting. I'm wearing one of my new t-shirts, designed by Nicola. They are available through Teemill, https://charlesdowding.teemill.com The Stihl hedge trimmer is an HLA56, and we use the two hour battery https://shop.stihl.co.uk/products/hla...
