My first ever crop.....

Last-of-V8's

Of organic cabbage. 1986. 6 acres planted with a 2 row planter, and had to cover the ground again putting the centre row in the bed with a single unit. :eek:
White cabbage, Bartelo and Marathon IIRC.
Not entirely successful, supermarkets wanted 2 kilo heads, these got to 4-5 kilo in the end. Then there was a severe frost at the end of December which ruined 1/3 of them left in the field.☹

And so began my career in farming.....:ROFL:
