Hiya :-)

Post: # 207319Post Gwynneth »

Hi folks :wave: , I've been lurking about for a few days and decided to join last night. My OH and I planted veg for the first time this year we started with plants and plan to try growing from seed next year. This year is more of an experiment and we have tomatoes, coriander, mint, beetroot, broccoli, sweet peppers, chillies, radish, corn, lettuces and a sweet potato vine. Our corn didn't do much apart from house some earwigs, and our radishes weren't very good as roots so we left them to flower to try the pods, other than that everything has been going well, we plan to harvest our beetroots next week and have had a our first broccoli's this week. I'm really excited about finding ish and have already found a few things i'd love to try, bread making, jams and soap. Anway i'm looking forward to getting to know you guys and learning from you. Cheers gwynneth

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free

It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
