Excessive biomass.
Did you miss my reply?

All that for £2. It's not worth growing your own.

I've going to count them and self impose this as the maximum future number I have, before the house looks too mad.

Moved all the chillies and house plants back in yesterday. Just in time.

Saved a few Pitmaston Pineapple. Really lovely sweet small apples.

Do them in containers with added chicken manure and blood fish and bone. I'm getting loads.

My Blue Danube potatoes I grew in cardboard boxes. Unfortunately some seem to have signs of wireworm.

Just finished. 300 litres and a bit.

Quite pink

Also saved back all the Red Devil apples that have a slight pinkish juice for this second barrel

I've got one grape vine and the grapes aren't good for much else but they are going in. About 2kg.

When it's pressed the pomice is pretty dry. I bung it in the compost and mix in some leaves. First the fruit flies eat it then you get thousands of red worms...then compost

I think that calls for a celebratory pint of cider
October 8, 2023 at 12:49 PM
200 litres. Get in! Starting 100 litre barrel next but won't be able to fill it I don't think.

Back on it after carboot. This apple was "Greensleeves"
October 8, 2023 at 12:36 PM
Did about 110 litres. I'm stopping now. Will carry on tomorrow.

First layer and juice is dripping through

Took me while to set up, but just about to start cidermaking. Doing it all alone this year so maybe extra challenging 🤣

Cider update. Got about 20kg of crabs from the road side. Probably not necessary but bit traditional now.

Went to Calke Abbey earlier. Was packed.
October 1, 2023 at 4:47 PM
Still got a shit ton to pick. Flagging a bit
September 30, 2023 at 2:34 PM
That's done
