Luke dug over a patch of ground, removed a huge amount of stones and roots and then dug in some sand (for drainage) and some soil improver. HE then planted up his earlies which would be followed by his main crop. He spaces them out and is ready to plant up.
A month or so later and the potatoes are growing into strong plants. Luke plants some Trail of Tears beans and adds the wigwam (made from the bamboo canes we cut down - waste not want not) He planted two a few weeks later than the others for succession growing. This extends the eating season as we should have them over a longer period. He also planted a courgette in the middle for companion planting.
