Grow fewer bush cherry tomatoes, 6 plants produced so much fruit we couldn't keep up.
Only grow greenhouse tomatoes to one stem, overcrowding is a recipe for mould.
Grow some blight resistant plum tomatoes outdoors as meals taste so much better with homegrown tomatoes instead of tinned.
Six compact chilli plants on a sunny windowsill provide more than enough fruit for a year. The only chillies in the greenhouse will be jalapenos, everything else will be sweet peppers.
Grow more garlic as we go through it so quickly.
Grow less kale and collards, more calabrese and kohlrabi.
Parsley and coriander in the ground, they go to seed too quickly in pots.
Plant tomatoes on the other side of the greenhouse so they don't cast so much shade.
Interplanting sweetcorn with squash works but the semi-bush squash got too tall and stopped the 2nd cobs on the sweetcorn from being pollinated.
Winter squash in containers, even 50 L ones, doesn't work very well.
