Vegetable

[mrph]

Somewhen in the next two weeks, I'm going to attempt to grow kohlrabi and turnips.

This may go horribly wrong. Alternatively, I may end up trying to offload spare vegetables on friends... :-)

First, though, I need to contruct a couple of raised beds at the end of the garden. This should be fun.

(I'm half-watching the Hungarian grand prix. It's failing to hold my attention...)

Hurray. I have kohlrabi too, and also beetroot and potatoes, and the strawberries are plodding along. After some of the potatoes have come out I'm going to put some parsnips down to get lovely and sweet over the winter frosts :D if the winter is actually cold this year...

I could do you a swap potatoes or beetroot for turnips later in the year, if you happen to be in Cambridge/I happen to be in Coventry! Beetroot is happening hopefully around Sept., potatoes are sort of a rolling crop.

Mmm. Beetroot. I am slightly addicted to beetroot...
