    Hi all I am new to this community I love to grow anything I can eat currently growing peas potatoes tomatoes carrots turnip broccoli coliflower sprouts beans mini corn (mini pop) marrows winter squash and cucumbers however the cucumbers aren't doing so good I've started to try to learn hydroponics and started off herbs like mint bazil coriander lettuce and dwarf tomato :) most of my crops are in raised planters or in pots in my greenhouse

    Impressive I have to say well done my grandad and dad were avid veggie growers as farm workers on low wages I did not follow and prefer flowers and our friendly blackbird a warm welcome to the discussion

    So many lovely flowers @michael57! My garden is looking a bit sad, I've neglected it this year. But we've got lots of tomatoes coming through. I don't actually like tomatoes that much but they're much nicer straight off the plant. Think there'll be a lot of pasta sauces in my freezer come harvest time!

    It matters not what you grow or don't grow as long as you get enjoyment from it patience is a good virtue to have

    Wise words @michael57! I hope to get back out there a bit to do some tidying when the weather cools off. Might pop to the garden centre tomorrow in preparation 😁
