Hi Melons - welcome to the vine - tell us a bit more about yourself - where are you growing and what do you want to grow?

Default what i plan to grow this year

last year i over loaded my green house with peppers, this year 5 Bardot melons and some cucumber. i have started this year by planting cauliflower (purple graffiti, snow crown) and yet to plant romanesco. broccoli, rainbow mix carrots, purple plum radish, gardeners delight toms, ruby perfection cabbage and traditional toms, a lot of work but well worth it for the taste of home grown
