I have been growing and showing veg since 1996, a brilliant hobby contrary to popular belief and the views of my mates who think I’m a big poof (I’ve got nothing against poofs however!). This is just a chart of my progress for the 2017 season, if you have any specific questions about ‘showing’ then email me on smithyveg@aol.com and I’ll do my best to answer them.

Ivor Mace
Derbyshire Horticultural Society have a new website (see links) and I would thoroughly recommend going to their annual lecture on March 11th.
Ivor Mace (like Giggsy) is an absolute legend having been a national champion not only for his onions but also for roses, chrysanths, carnations and daffodils.
i wonder what they fertilize these incredibly large veggies with.
ReplyDeleteNo secret......the usual fertilisers plus amazing dedication and attention to detail.
