Being a smaller grower, I often question are they worth the hassle at all.Is there no legs in a smaller growers of the 20ac size growing for a co-op of some kind?
Time you’ve done your fresh produce audit, your sedex one, get the periodical local council visit, do your residue tests, test the irrigation water (that falls from the sky ) each month, realise no statutory labels or SOLAs control mayweed anymore apart from metribuzim (which also kills your carrots) do a load of toolbox talks for the casual labour (who constantly change), keep the old wash plant going another year, keep the antique lifting kit alive, mess up your beds strawing down when it’s a bit wet, then strap in for the rodeo of lifting season, I don’t know about others but they really bring out the worst in all of us here.
there, I’ve just talked myself out of growing them .
