Nothing huge but it keeps us in Veges.
Pumpkin grows behind the chookpen as well as Corn.
Pots of herbs and veges everywhere as well.
Hot house is under construction ,but will have to wait.
Drainage problems come first.

I was thinking the very same thing, Trying to grow Fu--ing organic is a pain in the arse,, too much work.
Aparently Im supposed to be out there now squishing bugs with my fingers,,, Yeh F@#ing right I will.

Spinosad,,,, My saviour
I make me own spray,
HORTICO TOMATO DUST.
It has Spinosad, Copper and Sulfer.
Mix 1 teaspoon per litre water with a little white oil.
Bang, You have a compleat and cheap spray that takes care of just about the lot.

Perfect for fruit fly, I make a real oily mix and spray it over my citrus, Stone and exotics.
For greens, You need a lay off time before harvest. I leave it a week , Three or four days for tomatoes and wash well

Thanks Mick, I'll give it a whirl, the little cabbages are covered in moth eggs and the dust is a pain in the arse to get on the underside of the leaves!
