    I really need advice/info about what do do next year. ....I mean, is it necessary to practice a sort of crop rotation? Do I empty the containers and put fresh compost in them? I have had a wonderful crop of potatoes.....and garlic, so I made lots of potato salad.[emoji3]

      Best to follow a crop rotation especially for potatoes. So don't reuse the compost, get fresh next year :blue thumb:
