    Hello gardeners

    Hi, thanks for accepting my registration. I have just started growing veg this year (well, I've had a go at tomatoes before and potatoes) and have sowed tomatoes, pumpkins, cucumber, little gem, cabbage, broccoli and left over butternut squash seeds with a new crop of potatoes, oh and some beans that I had to plant 3 times before they got going so fingers crossed and I look forward to some words of wisdom on here!

                  Hello WLZ and welcome to the Vine.

                  You have done really well with your selection so far and I hope that they all produce wonderful tasting homegrown treats.

                    WLZ you must be more persistent than I.

                    I sowed my blue lake frenchies twice then gave up. Comed over My Borlotta beans from the next row so they are growing up the empty canes

                            Update on my crops

                            Sorry I haven't posted again till now, it has been mad busy family problemwise

                            The spuds in the main part of the garden are fantastic, we also cleared some land on our small hill but this is under a pine tree so the plants really reached for the light and some have only a few small uns on. The tomatoes are not bad. The beans started out OK but now are only growing to a yellow colour so I have dug them out. The peas are good, will sow loads more next year. Ah, the brassicas. I have had to dig every single one out. The broccoli were growing very nicely about 3 foot tall with a good head and then the blasted moths found them and literally EVERYTHING was crawling with caterpillars, UGH!! The beetroots never really got going and the same with the radish but the red onions are sort of twice the size of a spring onion and the actual spring onions are doing very well and are very hot! The pumpkins started to grow and the vines look very healthy but the actual fruits are still less than the size of a tangerine so I guess they've had it too. I can, however, report that there are 2 very spiky cucumbers growing

                            Think that's all, oh no, wait, the raspberries are growing all over the place and keeping my husband in fruit every other day.

                            Any advice or comments etc. would be very helpful, yours, Apprentice grower.

                              Sounds like you have had a mixed bag like many of us this year. Just wondering if Blueberries would benifit being grown under the pine tree as the needles acidify the soil which Blueberries love........just a thought but depends on light as well.
