i got a great harvest of sweetcorn, although next door thought i was mad when shakeing them togehter at midnight in the early summer to get the pollen going

.
my compost heap is doing good,( again next door think i am strange by pee-ing on it at midnight).
found out that compost cant be used 4 years on the trot !!! ( so thats why my peas & carrots didnt grow

.
i now have 5 different types of garlic growing ( put them in the fridge for 1 week and planted them out 1 week ago & have some really nice green bits popping up allready).
although my onions/carrots/sweetcorn/garlic/ where not show or supermarket type veg`s
and looked like they had been grown in "monty pythons allotment" they tasted
GREAT
