Number Crunching: Data Reconciliation Results Are Here, Most Profitable Cut Flowers Revealed & an Incredible (Improbable?) Net Profit Margin

20 minutes

Hello and welcome to tonight's episode on Friday 26 September 2025.

It's spreadsheet time! I simply couldn't wait to do a reconciliation with all the data I've been collecting in 2025 so I've done an interim report this week and I'm excited to share my findings with you in this episode. I'm afraid I'm quite geeky so I took great pleasure in creating lots of tabs in my spreadsheets and then sorting all the data to work out my most profitable cut flowers. If you're interested in my findings then this is the episode for you!

Other news from the plot includes another vet visit for one of the hens with tummy troubles, my soil blocker arrived (I can't wait to try it out and report back to you), plus bed prepping and seed harvesting continues. Hopefully the weather stays dry this weekend so more prep can be done for 2026. I hope that you have a wonderful weekend!

Please do join me for the next episode on either Tuesday or Friday every week and you're always very welcome.
