This year was just my green fingered experiment, just in case things went wrong with food supplies later in the year. Next year I'll be full on percy thrower 😄. I still haven't gotten around to planting apple trees at my woodland yet . I want to plant , eating apples , cooking apples , walnuts, and now , potatoes 😁 , I won't get much benefit from the trees , but my kids , and grandkids will. To be honest , I've got no garden space . I have a 90' garden , but it contains , my workshop, lins workshop, my lads fishing tackle shed , two wood stores , logs for the next two years , my scrap metal collection , and a 10'x10' pond . Even my drive is filled with logs. The whole place looks like steptoes scrap yard , so growing potatoes in bags was my only option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The apple trees I planted 3 years ago had pretty much a full crop on them last year. Unless you are thinking to pop off sometime soon you should see the benefit of them. 👍 Edited June 5, 2022 by 39TDS Walnuts may take a while.
