Re: growing your own veggies
I will leave them in the large plantpot . Can't be bothered to dig them up. Apart fom which , i dont think i will have much room left to plant them after i get all those plants in out of the greenhouse, I have already weeded and turned over part of my grass in the back garden .

Re: growing your own veggies
You need to get a petrol mower if you have a large garden an electric one will just burn out if you have a large one. I got one thats self propelled it just take you with it no effort needed! well not much.

Re: growing your own veggies
My toms are doing really well: now got a plastic greenhouse ( cheap ) but it does the job and if I stick at growning my own, next year I will go for a real one:
spuds doing really well: and salad leaves all grown in plastic garden bags from the pound shop:
Now going to have a go at making some raised beds....

Re: growing your own veggies
On the* allotments , we used to have a double glazing* firm we knew they took the old frames out of the houses and put the new ones in . then they brought the old ones down to the allotments , and we would build greenhouses out of them . They looked crap but they worked .
