Edible Gardening

Unfortunately, I missed that episode and can't use the player as I'm in France (well could if I messed around with IPN). Thanks for taking the time to let me know.

I had to pull it off anyway - there was a tiny hole in it from a slug Have cleaned it & popped it in fridge - will try it later

Pot your runners up to replace the plants the following year too

Difficult to show as they are quite a tangle, I train mine to the apex of my greenhouse ....... then down the other side:Photos from 3rd August.

Thank you! Sounds like I'm picking them too soon as I'm picking as soon as they're blue.

1st time growing radishes, is it normal for leaves and stems to flop all over the place?sometimes seems like leaves are too heavy for the stem to support. Radishes are growing well tho' and leaves and stem are a nice shade of green looking healthy enough.

I'm looking for turkish cucumber seeds if anyone can help?A fella gave me a TC plug plant & the cuces have been beautiful. I want to grow lots next year!Ive only found one place online (abroad) that sells them & theyre out of stock.Any ideas?

My vote is for blueberry muffins

Ill definitely consider em steve as theyve a great selection. Unfortunately im based in NI so postage is always a killer, plus i get pipers or pinks free from commercial growers, but the choice is fantastic!

I took this pic on sunday. They dont seem to be growing an awful lot - will be chopping off some leaves i think to see if that helps.

I grow autumn king and once upon a time lifted them and put them in boxes to store over winter. However over the last 3 or 4 years have just left them in the ground and they have lasted just fine. This year we ate our last freshly lifted carrots in late April - a tad hairy but prefectly edible..

It makes things easier if you want to build a permanent frame for growing the beans.

Thanks mate. Really appreciate it and, all the other advice given so far.I will never give up on this hobby as it is so rewarding. Got some other plants like roses, edibles like chillies and a few others as well.

Hi.. great to see the comparison!I just picked a few tomatoes tonight, and some of the larger ones are now just starting to ripen. I must start them earlier next year.I too was surprised at what I had grown. Although i put labels on them, I still managed to mix up my courgettes, gherkins...

ahhh, cheers! Ist year at them so haven't a clue! hopefully jow there is actually something ubder all those leaves!

My celery is self blanching so I don't need to make the paper or cardboard collars. If yours are not self blanching, then this might help

We are 'worm central' here. Every time I move pots there they are - wriggle wriggle.Looks like I will have to source worm tower materials from elsewhere. The skip was removed whilst I was out running errands. Glad I asked about the pallets first thing.I think I need to read up more on it. I...

Remove the old straw and netting so birds can get into the strawberry plants and pick off bugs. Pull off old damaged leaves. Remove excess runners, use them in another bed to build up stock as strawberries exhaust themselves after 3 years.

Thank you Steve R..Much Appreciated
