One year on, and I have managed to repeat exactly the same problem with trying to grow cucumbers as I had this time last year. Can anyone suggest...
We froze a load. Yes they are a bit soggy when you defrost them, but that only becomes an issue if you want to present whole chillis in a salad....
Don't get discouraged, granny. I am a rank newbie but find that chillis are about the only thing that I just cannot fail with. I decided not to...
I really love them when I get them from the deli, preserved in olive oil. I thought of maybe growing some, but I am a bit discouraged when...
My second year at growing this stuff after a highly successful first year (to be honest, grew far too much). Anyway, I have done the same again...

Hi.I have access to a Jade Tree (Crassula Ovata) from which I periodically try to propagate copies by way of cuttings. But nothing seems to...
My first attempt at growing onions, this year. Did a lot of garlic last year and recall that I had to remove the scapes (could eat them as well,...
It's not just the cabbage white that they attract: Check out the black fly.BTW I agree with the tastyness. Quite unique. The root of the...
My broad beans have started to flower. They otherwise appear healthy and are growing up fast in this weather. But they are not the dwarf variety...
I was given a gift set of seeds of venus fly trap and pitcher plants for Christmas (from www.boysstuff.co.uk I believe). It came in a kit with...

I am growing tomatoes in a greenhouse. Last year I used growbags. Was quite successful and no particular reason to change but this year I...
