Anthony, great explanation on your methods. Love the cucumber trellis. I tend to plant my corn seeds in pots first and raise the seedling to a height of about 20 cm. Then plant them out. As my garden is not as big as yours, I need to spread the load. Cheers mate. 👍👍

Thanks Kieth. With corn I tend to like to raise seedlings as well. I felt that the soil is very warm now so I will take a punt and direct seed and hopefully get a decent germination rate from the seeds

I didn't know you could fit so many crops in one season, that is something I was hesitant to do. Hi from Perth & thanks for sharing your experience & tips.
