Harvest of 20 or so pastries, it's incredible, the leaves have powdery mildew but they continue to produce

The zucchini, on the other hand, is practically finished. The last 2 are beautiful.

On all my cabbages planted one begins to head, next to it sees the 4th semi of carrots. Not much but hey I will do better next year, maybe.

Leeks have a little worm, I mash them when I can.

The tomatoes that I am looted by animals with two legs. Too bad it was a good year for the tomatoes and I could not harvest many.
They are not even very sick yet.

I have to look for another place to garden, the corner that I squat will be recovered by the city. I have a number of pilferers who annoy me because they take vegetables that are not even ripe, wasteful.
I made an announcement but for the moment no land.
For this first November, we have stuffed a pumpkin with shallots, cheese, cream and a can of minced meat.
Roast for 2 hours on low heat is very good.

It is true that it is a complicated situation, which I do not know, to garden in a "precarious" way, especially with our gardening methods which are more projected on the medium long term.

Good research. And be there next year to tell us about your new vegetable garden!

You say you are looking for a meadow for a donkey ... It's trendy, donkeys ...

And when you are offered it, you play the donkey and you put hay! If someone tells you something, you say that you have the right to treat yourself as a donkey, you don't insult anyone!

Last harvest of tiny cucurbits and other cucurbits, a small dish.
But also a good surprise blue feet (rhodopaxillus nudus) have grown in the hay.

Yesterday I harvested 2 kale
They didn’t really apple, besides a lot of slugs
What makes a cabbage apple?

Other blue feet have grown, unwittingly they succeeded well
I harvested 5 small carrots
Leeks cut because sick, 6 or 7 survived

That's a great question !!!

I had very beautiful cauliflowers last year. This year, almost nothing ... Last year, very beautiful cabbages. This year, it's mixed. I did not make sauerkraut. I reserved for "chopped coleslaw salads". I really like. And there, question of taste ("sweet") and tenderness, it is a killing, even if the outer leaves are rotten following the frosts at the end of November, I believe. I remove on the spot, collect the heart which is still good ...

Fertility and humidity are two factors that seem fairly obvious to me (for me, this year, the fact of not having watered very probably blocked the developments). Next year, with my tanks full (I hope), I will try a test "all other things being equal" (half watered, half not).

[- 6,5 ° this morning; beautiful sun; come on, I'm going to work a little! You do not see that a TV equipped arrives and films this mess!]

These are very good and easy to recognize.
It grows a lot in the area but I am super happy that the mixture of hay and various rather woody plants apparently favors these mushrooms. Because in 2 different places with the same treatment they grow. Not in large quantities but maybe next year will be even better.
