      Mine are in pots too. Never occurred to me to feed them. I do feed my toms and strawbs though.

        My carrots are in open ground but I never feed them at all. They don't really like rich ground.

        Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

        Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

              Other veg doesn't really need feeding ~ you should feed your soil, not your plants (by enriching it with homemade garden compost)
