ENGLAND, by Charles Dowding

Compare the fast growth of kohlrabi in 3-4 months, with the slower initial growth of wild rocket.

Both come ready in spring, and in autumn too.

In my no dig garden, the feed I use is compost for soil, applied once a year. I use no fertilisers, slug pellets or other inputs: it’s a simple and time-saving method..

This is zone 8b with lowest winter temperatures around -8C/18F. These plants can survive that amount of cold.

I show my method of overwintering wild rocket plants under cover, to plant in late winter.
