You rotate in that order. If you want 5 or 6 year rotation I can write that down also, if needed.

I’m very new at plant rotation and am wanting to use this process as my vegetables have been struggling. Any advice or direction of where to find this information would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

Method:
1. Remove stalk from siverbeet; chop leaves finely. Melt butter in a frying pan, add onion, cook until soft.
2. Add silverbeet and mustard; stir until soft and liquid has evaporated.
3. Place silverbeet mixture in a large bowl, cool to warm. Add beans and cheese. Season with salt and pepper; cool.
4. Cut each sheet of pastry in half. Divide the spinach mixture into 6 portions. Place one portion down centre of each piece of pastry. Brush edges of pastry with egg; roll up to enclose filling.
5. Cut each roll into 4 pieces. (Can also be done after it is baked) Place on lightly greased oven trays, seam-side down. Brush with remaining egg; sprinkle with seeds.
6. Cool in a hot oven 200degr. C. for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until pastry is puffed and golden brown.

Remark:
A bit fiddly, but I haven’t struck anyone yet who didn’t like this, even the fussiest of eaters. It’s also a great recipe for vegetarians. Leftovers can be enjoyed cold or reheated..

Slaters generally feed on old and decomposing materials, but every once in a while they will turn to emerging seedlings as a food source. I caught them red-handed in my bean patch a month or so back, and I lost most of my beans to their munching. Try keeping mulch well clear of your seedlings till they are well established, or making traps out of halved oranges with the flesh scoped out. Place the orange halves, skin side up, through the bed to attract the slaters and check each morning and remove any occupants. Good Luck!

As you love silverbeet, could you please share some of your favourite uses or recipes?

I’ve just planted some and it has survived it’s first 2 weeks in my garden (an achievement for me!).
