    sorry if this has already been asked - I am still finding my way round....

    Can anyone recommend some seeds for:
    Tomatoes (cherry, normal size (Very technical!! [​IMG] ) and good for pasta sauces/ chutney)
    Runner Beans
    dwarf or french beans

    Also, are there any differences in organic seeds, and normal (apart from price!!) :confused:

    Thanks!!! ;)

    Also best to go organic,
    this means that no pesticide spays have been used

    Hi Honey Bee, Do grow some outdoor cherry toms you wont be disapointed. When I plant mine out, Middle May, from the greenhouse, I place a temp plastic leanto over them as the nights may be cold and remove it in early June. Randomly stick and tie them. The nice thing is they don't have many enemies but the best bit is 'the taste. Im organic but not TT.
