  • Hello from Sunny North Tyneside.

    Hey all, thought it was time I to got around to participating, after skulking around for a few months.

    I'm Michael from Dudley, North Tyneside; This is my first year growing veg after taking over next doors rented garden to create 4 raised veg beds.

    At the moment in the beds I have:
    Onions (Red/White/Shalllots)
    Potatos (earlies and 2nds)
    Carrots(earlies, main crop and some purple ones, which I couldn't resist trying)
    Beetroot.

    In my recently constructed cold frame I have:
    Peas
    Runner Beans
    Cucumbers
    Tomato's (Outdoor/Hanging)
    Cabbage
    Cauliflower
    Sunflowers

    In various tubs and pots:
    Rhubarb
    Blackberry
    Herbs (Chives/Garlic Clives/Thyme/Basil/Parley

    and finally in the kitchen window box, some cut and come again lettuce - lots of it actually!

    Future plans are to extend the veg plot into the field behind the garden to make room for a greenhouse and a further bed or two.


    I have to say this site has proved invaluable in the early days.


    Well that's me.
    Cheers
    Michael
