Default Hi From Nottingham

Hi, I'm Cav, 25 from Nottingham, engaged with a four (almost five, as she keeps reminding me) year old daughter .

I've never grown my own veg before , was inspired to start when I realised the forgotten garlic sprouting on my windowsill could be recycled ^^

I have a pretty large garden, so I'm hoping to get started digging it over into beds and experimenting with other things . I'm also hoping to utilise the windowsill space in my home to start things off . You'll probably see a lot of me asking for tips as I'm a complete novice ^^

Hi Cavellia and welcome. Everyone starts off as a novice so don't worry, there is a wealth of help and information on this site and everyone very friendly so don't be afraid to ask.

Morning Cav and welcome. I'm a bit of newbie here too! I used to live in Nottingham when I was a child, in Carlton. Had a brilliant garden there and it's the one I want to recreate for my daughter (we have a while, she's only 4 1/2 months!). Good luck - you'll love it! x

Hi Cavellia, once you've made a start you won't be able to stop yourself trashing that lawn. That happened to me! Good luck with all your growing.
