I have been getting quite a bit of produce out of my garden, and have been enjoying the fresh produce. However, I have noticed that some things are starting to die off or go to seed.
My lettuce has gone to seed, as has my parsley. My sweet corn and sunflowers are dying down... so it's time to think about my autumn/winter crop. I will be considering rotations crops and companion planting, so will allow the sweet corn and sunflowers to die down so they add nitrogen into the soil ready for the crop that will go in after them.
However, as some things are reaching the end of their life, other things are just fruiting. I have some rockmelons growing now, and have noticed some baby eggplants as well. I hope they reach maturity so we can enjoy home grown rockmelons and eggplants!
