Edible Gardening

hallo pete and victoria ----- yes am in hungary, winters can be hard to -15 but that hasnt happened for a few years now, usually down to about -5 for a week or two and some snow ---- so thats where i went wrong: i thought the new shoots bring the fruit so i deliberately cut them back, what a...

I put CDs around, plus a scarecrow. The scarecrow moves from tree to tree as the crops ripen, so the birds don't get used to him being in one place. It's worked so far this year

Great garden @Steve R !

Here's how the garlic turned out.Harvesting the garlic a month early because I needed the space.

Yea just too hot, thankfully my greenhouse is really old, missing several panes and the door wont close, so it doesnt get too hot in there anyway

I noticed on the roof of my Plastic Grow houses there was condensation dripping down on my Toms, this could cause the burning when the Sun comes out. I now wipe the roofs.

I hope not too, but it is the way the stem is browning that is making me think that.. I just hope I am wrong..

A good idea Back in the days before I started growing my beans through black membrane I used to grow catch crops (mainly salad stuff) in the bean rows. It was always successful.

I decided against it in the end and have used a john innes instead, will just have to make sure I keep up with the watering

Good suggestion Janet Companion planting is something I do here too

There are some raspberries that are grown in containers eg Raspberry Ruby Beauty - a Dwarf Summer Fruiting Raspberry grow bags are ok but leave it in the pot insome good compost I am growing my veg and fruits in containers and they doing well despite the weather

Calling a stinking liquid made from raw decomposed weeds a "tea" would be besmirching the good name of my beloved PG Tips.Therefore, if you are going to all the trouble of producing your own liquid feed then you might as well take that small extra step and give it a descriptive name that...

thanks all, I thought I had better check

Thanks! That is very good to know, I am glad I will not need to remove them next year. In the end, I agree that June bearers are better as for the fruits. Ours did very well last year. But a costant supply of berries over the Summer is a very attractive perspective, it might help luring my kid...

Thanks! I do not have much space indoor and no greenhouse, but I think you are right, that is my only chance. I will transfer them all in larger pots and give them plenty of sun.Hopefully, I will be able to tell them apart eventually. It is a pity because I had all my limited planting spaces...

My Cucumbers are getting the same Selleri, I'll wait a couple of weeks and then they go into the blowaway house.

We love dwarf beans, great idea!

I don't grow them these days. But I would be doing it now if l did.

Thanks for that. I've just had to do some pruning and have a load of scion wood. Would be a shame for it to go to waste.

Thanks Mike, I will make sure to remove the envelope at the time of planting then. At the moment, I have only 8 seeds in Jiffy (bush tomatoes), it has been a week and they have not developed yet.But I have 15 or so corn and squash plants germinating in small 6cm pots (in potting soil). I will...
