Mein Mangold mickert dieses Jahr. Ihn hätte ich wohl in den Halbschatten setzen sollen. Ich habe nochmal ausgesät, der kommt dann ins Hochbeet zum Überwintern.

Ja, dieses Jahr ist wie verhext mit dem Mangold. Ich warte auf den erlösenden Regen.

I moved my chard to partial shade and it is happier than ever.
