I got first place with my cabbage! Ha could not believe it £5 prize money! And had loads of old boys asking how I grow it and what I fed it , I sed I just planted it and left it , I think the 4 year old duck muck was the key !
Ferret show was a let down bloke judging unloaded his mates ferrets out of his van guess what they did very well! , our ferrets were left unattended at the end any one could of walked off with them !
Smaller the better I cook mine in a pressure cooker for 15mins skin them then quarter them pop um in jars put 2 table spoons of sugar and a pinch of salt on them half fill with white vinegar and top up with water , not sure if it's the [BANNED TEXT] way to do it but it works for me
Ps make sure your jars are clean
Try them roasted lovely or make borsht soup very nice , can great them raw onto salads , it's a very versatile veg ,
She dose them rosted with balsamic vinegar and honey v nice
Just on with pickleing my first beets picked one row to night and think will get about 20 jars out of it another row to pick tomorrow night then a 2 week break, iv got 2 pressure cookers on the go !
