Mini Rotation of Beans and Cabbage, Potatoes and Leeks
The fifth year of growing these same vegetables in the same soil.
In one bed the broad/fava beans finish in time to plant hearting cabbage, whose harvest finishes in time to transplant broad beans in December.
In the other bed we plant second early potatoes April, harvested mid July and with leek transplants ready to go in on the same day. Their harvest finishes before it's time to plant potatoes.
Compost is applied once a year in December, and I use no other feeds or amendments except some rockdust in 2014.

and in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0V-5qXQz9U
The question of how much we need to rotate plantings is one of the lessons in my No Dig Gardening online course https://charlesdowding.co.uk/product/no-dig-gardening-online-course/
