Edible Gardening

The diligent gardener website is giving away a dvd on how to grow veg.

When I saw the thread title, I was just about to leap in and say that blueberry leaves do often turn vivid red and brown shades in autumn, but from the pics, I don't think that's it. Have a good close look at the underside of the leaves, make sure nothing is eating them. Also, keep a close eye...

I`m actually more interest if it`s a true species or a graft ? if anyone will buy the seeds will it be able to grow plants from seeds?

Oh, and they will be planted in a raised bed.

Now that *is* a pleasant surprise, congratUlations I plan to try growing parsnips next year

Leave them on the plant for as long as possible for the fruits/skins to ripen/harden whilst there's still healthy leaves on the plants. They will however continue to turn the proper orangey colour after picking. Leave a good length of stem on the pumpkin when you carefully cut it as I've seen...

Ah ... NOW it all makes sense

Please. Definitely not boring

Anyone have any of these peppers to share? I need 2 for some friends to eat and Unfourtunately I grew habenaros instead.

Good morning Sheal no worries my friend it was a pleasure

Yes Sheal, in my experience they don't like being in full sun. I've always grown my cucs in the shade and most years get a respectible crop, but this year there was just too little sun anyway. I also half suspect that at Wisley they have backup plants grown inside heated greenhouses with...

Belissimo

Wow sounds like you manage to get a fair amount in then lol :D

Loli very nice I bet the chucks want to have a look around given the chance Spruce

Probably worth protecting (cloche or fleece) this time of year. The time that the ground is frosty is very short, so surviveable (perhaps with a bit of help) I reckon that dahlias don't get blackened by a light frost, and will carry on for a while. Perhaps applies to other tender plants too...

You could substitute red wine vinegar and stock/water. Once slow cooked, your son may not even realise he is eating an "onion", you could call them "edible sweet bulbs" or somesuch. (Mr Mum was a notorious 'fussy' eater - boarding on obsessively so - and over time I have fooled re-educated his...

Errmmm, courgettes, abundance, and not a solar flare in the garden. will freeze a few just in case!
