Very interesting, if perhaps off-putting as it appears complex and uncertain for the inexperienced. I am tempted to try a single bed with salad-related plants and some brassicas as a way of dipping a toe in the water if you follow. Thanks for these nudges – they are very helpful.

The polyculture method does seem daunting, but I wonder it alleviates some of the need for rotation by making any given spot less tailored to a particular set of pests and diseases? Rotation has always been tricky for me, since I do tend to grow a lot of a fairly small set of crops, and the space needed to accommodate three or four years between plantings of a particular family is quite a stretch.

Great video. I use catch crops in gaps. I'll have to give this a go in an area.

Interesting video, thanks for sharing your results! If you like, have a look at my two polyucultures.The first one (https://youtu.be/Slkk1JhdV5c) can be sown in April for harvesting from about 3 weeks after sowing onwards (we're still harvesting parsinps, chard and chicories from last year's sowing). We filmed several updates during the season (at 4 weeks, 4 months, 7 months after sowing). Density issues can indeed usually be corrected by agressive harvesting as many crops can be eaten at seedling stage. The other polyculture includes larger plants that are not hardy and can be presown and planted out in mid May (https://youtu.be/zskA-B6PG8M). We're in the Netherlands, so I suspect the climate is quite similar to yours. Best wishes, Vera
