Biggest harvest ever

Biggest harvest ever of Oca Oxalis tuberosa
Before you grew them like u do with potatoes tiling the soil around them. And it’s not a bad method but this new one is even better.
Started the tubers inside our greenhouse in medium big seeding pots until they sprout. Planting outside after the risk of frost is over for us usually the 3 week in may. We used a group tarp call mypex and that is developed for nurseries and is heavy duty and you can reuse them more then 15 years running, depending on your crop u burn a hole in the tarp accord to the with for us 30 cm between the rows and 30 cm between each plant. Plants grow fast and u can harvest leafs and flowers all summer for your salads, after the frost have taken the parts of the plant that is about ground you leave it for about 4 weeks until u harvest to give the tubers time to form and get big.
Most of them are forms under the tarp but above the soil and the rest in the top cm of soil making harvesting real easy

Big Surprise

Big surprise when I got back home after my delivery round too Malmö and Copenhagen
Tomato greenhouses are empty, clean and move from a new crop.
Our three new interns have really settled in after about a week on the farm and so much of the autumn stuff is done already and we even had time to retry a method on planting potato onions in the fall instead of spring to get a extra early crop.
We have done this before on small scale but now it’s for real and we do a full bed, only thing we are done extra is covering them with a low tunnel to create a slightly warmer climate and cut some of the rain.

Manchurian pear

Very special pears from the Manchurian spices
Pyrus ussuriensis var hondoensis
Possibly the most Beautiful pear trees with a bit wider canopy and stunning flower almost covering the whole tree. It’s really hardy (Sweden zon 3) and is very productive with a lot of fruit, not the best tasting but considering it’s a one species with no selective propagation behind it it’s exceptionally good. Hopefully getting enough on our trees to try juicing and cider making next year

Rosenkål

Rosenkål
Ett betydligt vackrare namn på en av vinterns klassiker Brysselkål.
Nu när november är här och i alla fall många skåningar firar Mårten gås är detta ett måste på middagsbordet.
En del av rosenkålen som många missar är toppen, inte lika hårt knuten som knopparna man ser ute i handel den är fantastiskt god precis som det andra bladen runt omkring.
En härlig klassisk grönsak som du hittar i denna veckans beställningslista och via REKO ring Hörby, Mobilia, Malmö och Limhamn

Winter palm trees

All lined up
Some of our winter hardy palms that is a perfect mix of fun and edible,
The one in the smallest pot is acutely the boss when it comes to handling the cold with it surviving down to minus -20 degrees Celsius.
On the left we have the Canary Island palm tree that produces dates that are edible.
They will spend the winter in our unheated greenhouse and hopefully we have some extra plants over off the ultra winter hardy on Trachycarpus fortunei Himalaya palm tree the one in the smallest pot.
