I love all your videos. I would also think it would be super great to make short videos for each type of veg. How to grow, when to grow etc. Lovely to just refer back and also you don't get videos like that for the South African climate. Please please please.

Notes.. succession planting. Plant Determinate and Indeterminate Tomatoes on same day. Bush Beans and Pole Beans plant on same day. Lettuce is winter crop, but Living seeds does have "Heat Resistant" varieties available. Tom varieties Spanish and Italian.. plant in Feb. When frost hits, pick whole vine and hang up.. it cures on the vine, winter storeage tomatoes

Great information Shaun. Love the video. Can you perhaps give your view on crop rotation?

Crop rotation is not as important as keeping living roots in the soil. Always try to have living roots in the soil as this is what keeps your soil alive. People get fixated on crop rotation schedules and tie themselves up rigid schedules. Keeping living roots in the soil is key. Also don't plant the same things in the same place at the same time every year, mix it up. We rely heavily on single green manures and multi-species cover crops on any soil that is left bare for more than a week. Specifically to keep living roots in the soil. Even if we have an immature cover crop that is terminated after a few short weeks of growth. This will be far more beneficial than a rigid crop rotation schedule.
