I'm further north than you, but mine is still green and healthy *touch wood*, so I can't see it being down to dying off for autumn.
Best way to start small is to do the carboots. When I used to go to the local ones every Sunday, there were many folk selling plants from tomatoes...
I had problems with mine as well, it seems it isn't just here in the NW where the potatoes have had a problem. :(
Pictures are a big help, though it's probably just daisies in your lawn, and because you've taken the tops off, they grow to flower again. Depends...
I think the roll cost me about £20, I still have a load of it left. I used it on a concrete fence though. The slope idea may be worth considering,...
I just went out, caught one of the little darlings on it's way to my youngest tomato. A stick sorted it out :)With regards to the slug pellets....
I got a big roll of plastic from a builders merchant, it's like DPM. I just put that round my fence before I backfilled it, to hinder the damp...

As promised, photos. First two are of the suspect plant, final one is what the rest of them are like, for colour comparisons.[img][img]...
Doesn't look like olive to me The leaves look familiar, but can't think why.Welcome all the same :)
Is it too late to start a batch of leeks do we think?
No, no-one smokes. Plant looks healthy all in all, it's just the chillies are a strange colour. They've been put in a pot, in the 'conservatory'...
Sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned red. They are a very pale green, almost white. By contrast, the others are a very deep green, and all grown in...
My father in law bought an 'Apache' F1 variety of chilli as a young plant, but now it's fruiting, the chilli's are not thin and red as you would...
