Any updates? Keen to see your door solution.

Nice!

Well worth listening to.

Brassicas can accumulate nitrates under overcast conditions. There may be something out there they are over-indulging on. Give them ad lib hay and free choice humate granules. That often helps.

Hi nitrate feed can do that.

I agree with you Graham. Local food systems need to be encouraged rather than relying on imports. Too often local food production is demonised & shut down in the name of "climate" goals. Perhaps Brasil could be empowered to sell old growth carbon credits instead.

Activating compost before spreading it out pre sowing.

Nice! Thanks for sharing.

Looks great! I'm a big fan of higher rates if it's affordable. Is that 8kg total, or per cross?

Hmmm not sure about that title! Will do next time. I was going to offer to drop some off but no one was home. Was going past in the tractor & everything..

As a neighbour I've seen your block go from degraded & neglected farmland to a thriving habitat. The re-veg along the creek is particularly impressive. My son & I only commented on it, driving past the other day. You are my example of hobby farms that are good for the landscape.

For best results, terminate them when they are flowering.

I sow it together with lucerne in autumn. 1 to 1.5kg/ha. It germinates but doesn't really get going till summer. I like to let it set seed to thicken up the stand.

A problem, but free fish fertiliser.
