Hi and welcome. Not a good year for growing last season but we all had our individual successes. Hoping for a better season for newcomers to veg growing like yourself. Any questions - ask away!

Hi and welcome to the vine!
I have joined only three days ago and I am also new at growing veg...
For my part, I choose to go with easy crop like radish, courgette, and a mix of cut-and-grow salads like rocket, mizuna, lamb's lettuce... then I will make the most of the tiny space with herbs...there is so many to choose from and they have interesting foliages ( lets be artistic gardeners!), very interesting for bees and others helpful insects...
You said you have grown spring onion...any problems with these?
