Veg grower - Still here, looking in every now and again. Just potted out some tomato plants this week. My mrs likes the crunchy tomatoes that can be bought in most supermarkets imported from the Canaries. A friend of ours brought back from the Canaries some tomato seeds called Canario, so I am looking forward to see what results I get. My experiment with bud cuttings from my grapevine seem to have worked so I will have a few to give away at the end of the year. I've planted all my veg seeds for this season - peas (now just showing ), runner beans, broad beans, onions ( doing well ). There seems to be a lot of blossom on all my fruit trees/bushes this year. Strawberries in the greenhouse are full of flowers. Lets all hope for a better summer than last year.
