Default hey hey I'm new!

Hi all I'm new! I'm hoping I can pick up some good tips on here, I don't have an allotment though, I've commandeered a corner of our communal garden for my mini greenhouse and a couple of pots. Hopefully next year I'll be able to sweet talk the other residents into letting me build a raised bed too!

At the moment I'm growing 2 tomato plants (Tamina and Sungold) one cucumber and 2 pots of leeks

Welcome aboard both of you - you'll soon get the bug and be growing more and more - possibly more than you need, probably more than you have room for, but stick with it the rewards are great.

Another Bedfordshirean eh Harleen? That makes 4 of us now - I think...

I tried chillies last year too Harleen! Got loads off them ,all though we did grow about 12 plants!

Think I already am addicted, went into town for a sandwich and came back with a packet of lettuce seeds
