Yes that makes sense. I’ve now started to be a bit more economical with the sowings!
Thanks Freddy! I’ll do that in future.
They give u so many seeds and they are so small I don’t know how it’s possible to plant one seed far from the other. You’d need a massive patch to...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH]Is it worth me planting them?
Yep, I don’t remember anything in it’s original form when I spread it, except the eggshells and banana skins which I no longer compost. Just put...
Thank you, I’ll try to introduce more bulky stuff to it, right now it’s mainly fruit n veg peelings.
No, no drainage, it was moist but not dry or over wet. The fertiliser was simply the stuff in bottles you apply with a watering can. Just about...
That’s interesting! It does seem to be wherever I put the compost, come to think of it. Just kitchen organic waste chucked into a huge rain butt,...
Thank you both. Yes, maybe I was trying too much at the same time. I got a load of seeds by subscription to a magazine, still got loads! I think...

Brilliant, thanks all. Funny thing is I don’t even like chilliest - I used to be able to eat them but can’t any more. But hubby eats them raw like...

I’m probably too impatient! Many thanks for the replies - will persevere.
Thanks, could try that.
We have a thriving old grapevine which grows up and over a very old trellis/pergola, which has two sides and a 'roof'. It's gradually falling to...
I bought a pack of seeds and put them in pots in compost in the greenhouse. Nothing much was happening so I put them on the window sill. Still...
I'm a complete failure in the garden and I don't know why. I have fruit trees which I planted in December 2015. The 'Annie' apple tree had 3...
This is the second year I've tried cucumbers - to no avail. I plant the seeds in good compost in pots in the greenhouse. At most I get a little...
