    I do like looking at online sites and in mags because when I see something I either like or want I then have to figure out a way to get something similar by cobbling various free bits and pieces together.
    That is ho I ended up with my strawberries in tyres, I spotted one of those huge Victorian planter things, nearly fainted at the price and decided that with my limited space I needed to improvise.
    I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work. Thomas A. Edison

        We'd be fine too - my parents are the landlords :-) Might give that a try! Just need to get some bits actually growing!!

          You do NOT have to buy pots either,for things like toms,buy the cheap whit plastic chuck aways,write the name of the plant and variety on the pot,for beans save any suitable container,ice cream,mushroom ext,for labels cut up the ice cream/marge ext lids,smaller pots that are deep enough for beans,some peeps only want a few plants,or for the kids to grow,i plan on putting mine out anytime now,that reminds me,i have a few left over brasica plants that can go out,
