Our plant is loaded everywhere with fast maturing green capsicums
.
This plant virtually gets no direct sunlight (or very little). It is hidden behind a wall of giant pepper plants but has somehow managed to bud successfully. It's so dense in here we struggled to get our hand in for a photo 😂

Loving these winter PEPPERS 😍
.
Our plants have been growing without any assistance for months. At the seedling stage we applied some general all-round fertiliser around the base of the plants and only applied some seaweed solution while they were small but all of this was done well before Xmas
.
They are resilient plants and if you give them the right nutrients for "growing bones" while they are young, we really haven't needed to do anything else to them in over 6 months other than protect their volatile branches from wind damage ✅

BROADBEANS are often grown not only for their pods but for their excellent green manure qualities
.
If you grow them purely for this purpose to improve poor and infertile soils or to simply provide natural fertiliser to your existing garden beds, they are best chopped down as soon as you see flowers developing on them and prior to pod production for maximum nitrogen extraction
.
BROADBEANS work with a particular species of bacteria who colonise and live on the roots of the plant. (Once you pull the plants out, you can actually see the galls where the bacteria lived. They look like nematode galls)
.
The bacteria work by harvesting nitrogen from the air and converting it into ammonia that the plant is able to consume for growth
.
Therefore there is no need to fertilise your BROADBEANS with nitrogen fertiliser unless your soil is not healthy and lacking compost. In cases like this, inoculating your plants with bacteria is an option and will allow the bacteria to actively live in your soil
.
The bacteria do not harm the roots and are kept alive by the photosynthesised sugars in the plant

TUSCAN KALE 😋
.
There'll be a lot of competition between ourselves and our chickens for first use of the kale 😂
