      I think I searched by google or found it by accident when looking for something else.

      May I say how pleased I am to have found a gardening forum which is not moribund, not dominated by blokey, geeky blokes, has a good mix of newbies/experienced members and enjoys a bit of a laugh!

        I googled 'Gardening forum' and joined a couple only to find that most of the posters were in the USA and talking about plants I'd never heard of and conditions that were too widely different from my Scottish damp. I modified it with 'uk' and came up with this one straight away and never looked back.

        One of my adult education class told me to join as I love gardening and studying pests and diseases.

        Same here... Googled "UK gardening forums". This site had a couple of mentions on the first page, so I had a quick look around and concluded that was what I was looking for. :thumb:

        I googled for 'Garden Forums', there are obviously quite a few, but the Intro of being the only gardening forum I will ever need seemed homely and friendly, so here I am :)
