This week it's all about those jobs to make sure your harvest is as good as it possibly can be.

Are your potatoes looking healthy? Green, not yellow? Well now it's time to cover them up with soil to cut out the light and persuade them to form some more tubers for your harvest come September or October.

It's hard work so choose your day to do it carefully. Not too hot.

It's also time to get lots of well rotted manure on the pumpkin and squash bed so these heavy feeders have the best chance of putting on weight from their vines before halloween !
