2026 - What I did today.

its Roots week and my birthday so I thought I'd treat myself to a furtle in the Roots section of the Little Shop.
I pulled up a carrot, two radishes and a Mooli radish. So much excitement!!
Next I furtled for Mashua and Oca in the defrosted buckets, I emptied the Mashua tub into a trug as it was easier to pick out the mashua that way. There were about 6 of a decent size and a few small ones/fat roots that I replanted immediately, using the same compost mixed with coir.
Next up was the Oca tub. They were more exciting to harvest because they were bright red and easy to spot. There were 12 decent size ones and a few tiddlers. Once I've mixed the old compost with some coir, I'll plant the tiddlers and all the roots as they seemed to be raring to grow.
For the record, the cuttings that I took of the Oca have grown well. I may transplant them into another big pot. With the mashua tuber that I pulled up a couple of weeks ago, I replanted the root end and that is also growing.
