Does anyone have one?

We are growing a lot of different things this year. Would be interesting to see if anyone else is growing their own.

It grows a little, shrinks a little, grows a little, shrinks a little... And that's just on his tea break, when he's perving out the window....

That's great. The difference in taste is amazing compared to shop bought. What do you think?

We are growing tomatoes, courgettes, aubergines, peppers, chillies, melons, pumpkin, asparagus, garlic, pea pods, runner beans, leaks, potatoes, chives, sweetcorn, lettuce and have fruit trees, cherry, apple and plum. Also we have a good variety of herbs which I dry for the winter. I think that's everything we are growing. Might have missed a couple of things. X

Wow,that will keep you busy then.

I love the fact that this started off as a little thing foe me and my son to do, and now every year we carry it on. One other thing I love is there are no chemicals, pesticides and you can just pick it from your door step. It's the way forward. Will be doing a veg patch in every garden when we move.

It is great for the kids. Mine love going out and helping theirselves to the pea pods and other things. This is the first year we have done all that lot. Before we only grew potatoes, pea pods, strawberrys and my herbs so it will be exciting when it's all ready to eat. X

The kids will love it if there anything like mine. Just watch for picking and eating tomatoes too early as in I mean too green, my son did that last year and gave himself belly ache.

But have fun with it, never grown pumpkin before, just have to see if it grows

OK, greenfingered ladies,(Try swarfega, I find it gets your hands clean).

Technical gardening question:

If I bury my mother in law in the garden, will it be good for my rhubarb?

For these things do you need a greenhouse or something covering them up?

"For these things do you need a greenhouse or something covering them up?"

In Glasgow a greenhouse or a polytunnel would be assets but not 100% required.

Someone who really knows would be able to advise about what to plant when and where.

BTW, you can build a greenhouse out of some bamboo canes and loads of empty plastic 2 litre soft drinks bottles.

lots n lots of water, and try to turn them occasionally so they don't ripen too much on the upper side, and stay pale and get eaten by slugs underneath. hubbie used to put a hessian sack of horse dung into a water butt and use that liquid (watered down) to feed them,

Thanks for the hints and tips both, but alas it's still a little seedling so it has a while to go yet.

Yes I've had pumpkin bread it was delicious, from a Canadian neighbour but never got a recipe, however sweet potatoe and pumpkin soup is Devine.

Google for a recipe for the bread.
