Yikes! Another reason to #GYO! Garlic is so easy to grow! @fdarecall_bot

#GrowYourOwn #Garlic

Plus a handful of harvests today...

A bit of kale from the #allotment, plus the tops snipped off the leggy broad bean seedlings. Going to fry this lot up with garlic to go with dinner tonight.

A surprise fungus harvest from the #greenhouse... I am not yet 100% confident of identification, but this seems to be very alike good old agaricus bisporus. Perhaps from our home compost. Might eat them if I can improve on my confidence, but not too fussed if not as they're not exactly precious or fancy.

Finally a pot of Jerusalem artichokes from the fartichoke bed at home. They seem much better after their second growing season, plumper, less knobbly. This is basically just from me forking over about 50cm2 of ground and sifting out the bigger tubers. The plan with these is to slice them and layer them into a mousaka.

That's two petri dishes put to use for parsnip seed chitting.

* Real Seeds "Tender & True"
* Unwins "Improved Hollow Crowned"

I chit parsnip seeds for efficiency and consistency. Means I can place out an even grid of parsnips with pretty much guaranteed success at each planting position. Which is much less faff than planting out rows, hoping, and thinning.
