The Carrot Grower: Growing Methods
http://carrotgrower.blogspot.com/2011/02/growing-methods.html
Thursday, 10 February 2011. Well I have finally got started on emptying my barrels (36)this week - This really is a back breaking job which involves emptying every barrel and refilling them. I empty the end one of a row and then empty the next barrel into the empty one - until you come to the last one which you need to fill with the sand from the first one emptied! 10 February 2011 at 20:51. I like the pipe idea Ian. 11 February 2011 at 11:45. Sorry for the twenty questions! 11 February 2011 at 18:08.

http://carrotgrower.blogspot.com/2011/01/shallots.html
Monday, 24 January 2011. Just returned from a week in Berlin so now need to crack on with the work(wouldn`t have mattered anyway as it was hard frost all week I was away! Will be moved to a polytunnel in the next couple of days. The pickling shallots will be potted into smaller pots and in a less rich compost - as I am trying to keep them down in size. 25 January 2011 at 17:26. And you call me a rich eccentric englishman? 25 January 2011 at 21:10. Smithy - I call you that amongst other things!

Friday, 7 January 2011. Last year I grew Willos Violet,Monicas Willo,Hallmark, and Moor Place - with Willos Violet producing the best of all. So this year I am expanding - no collerettes and increasing to 72 poms - which to get to a good show standard take an incredible amount of time. So this year my poms will be 9 x 8 varieties.These are:. Most will be cuttings from tubers apart from a couple of varieties where I will buy in plants - so watch this space for the trials and tribulations of growing poms!

Monday, 24 January 2011. Just before I dissapeared on a weeks break I went down to Iain Barbours JBA seed potatoes in Annan to pick up my seed potatoes. It was only yesterday that I had the chance to sort them into trays(actually cat litter trays from Poundland at a £1 each! 25 January 2011 at 20:43. They are looking good Ian. You will have to give your master a run for his money this year. 25 January 2011 at 21:08. 25 January 2011 at 22:19. How much were the trays from poundland? View my complete profile.
