    Hi All,

    Just joined up this morning and thought I would say hi. We've just got permission from the landlord to dig up the front lawn and put in some raised beds for veg.

    I've invested in six 13ft scaffold boards to make a couple of 13ft x 5ft (ish) beds, they were only £4 each too. I'll put up some photos when it stops raining to show you my progress/ideas.

    We've also got a green house with tomatoes, aubergines, sweet peppers and cayenne peppers going well at the moment, and plenty of herbs in pots on the patio.

    Looking forward to getting some tips on how to progess the beds.

    All the best,

    Dan.
