The frost has killed everything it's going to.
Now I really need to get harvesting some root crops. One in particular is the yacon I planted.
I went a bit mad this year and put in a 20ft row of the stuff. It has cropped heavily, so I've no idea what I'm going to do with it all!
The boy and I set to digging some up last week. I was impressed with the size of the roots, and the weight! They are difficult to harvest without breaking though! Careful digging is needed, pulling them out the ground really doesn't work.

Managed to harvest two buckets full from just two plants with plenty more to go yet! I need to deside where I'm going to store them all!
Any ideas on what I should do with it all?
