First post on a new Thread! I'm honoured!

Sowed some old Mangetout peas direct into troughs and planters for the new "Pea house!" Sounds grand but its just 3 netted sides of a square decked area that used to have a pond in it. The planters will go inside the netting and, hopefully, cover it with mangetout in many shades of peapods.

Shiraz = Purple

We have been gifted some Tom plants in 4" pots from some neighbours as they have done too many and didn't want to see them go to waste. 

I have been told they are a cordon variety but I wasnt told a variety name. The main problem is I have never grown toms before so am not sure what I'm doing. I have potted them on in to some deeper pots as they were getting a bit pot bound and they were drying out quickly in this weather. Also we don't have a greenhouse so we will need to grow them outside. 

So my question is what next, how big a pot should I be aiming for in the end and what do I need to do with the plant for best results. Thanks everyone.

   

My first year growing (trying to grow) Aubergines. 
I had a mixed packet of seeds - Mediterranean and Asian. 50 seeds and I sowed the lot!
I've potted up 12 and still have 9 in modules whose fate is undecided. None of the neighbours want them - they say insulting things about  them instead!

I have no idea what to expect from them  (that's the aubergines, not the neighbours!) but, you know me, I like surprises. 

I’m have trouble with my luffa. No idea what the problem is. They go from healthy to dead in 24 hours.

I’m doing nothing different. It’s effected 4 so far. 
How’s yours doing veggie?

Lots of shops have been closed for a few months because of Covid, but for those of us lucky enough to have our own Little Shop at the end of the garden or on the plot, there have been supplies on the shelves.
I've been a regular customer in my Shop but, to be honest, stock levels haven't been sufficient to keep up with demand  and there have been many days when the shelves have been bare. 
The Shopkeeper assures me that there will  be a delivery of Dwarf French Beans next week - although they may be a bit more expensive than usual as they'll be the first of the season. 
Regular deliveries of courgettes are expected in June with the first cucumbers and strawberries.  

Has your Shop kept up supplying its customers or did it have to close down?

I think it's generally known that urine is a good compost accelerator,  but how much and how often?

So many things you can do!

Hello all, I'm Scarlet. Been loving the lockdown and the weather. After planting up 50 dahlias I'm seriously wondering what to do with the other 50 
I've slowly emptied the GH's to get my tomatoes in the borders but have been struggling a bit with the sun. More to do tomorrow.

I've been thinking of buying a "treat"  with the money I've managed not to spend during Covid - something I wouldn't normally buy for myself. All I can think of is a Hotbin!!

My main reservation (apart from the price) is that I have very little household food waste - not with 3 dogs and a chicken! So I might have to create stuff to be composted.
Do any of you have any experience with Hotbins (No Baldy, this is a sensible question. )

Please don't suggest a Wormery instead as I've failed miserably with them  and I'm no good with normal compost bins either!

I have some self seeded/grown garlic which is healthy and green. Because I thought this merely a supermarket cast off that has taken to the garden and decided to stay, and has very small cloves, I decided to buy some Casablanca cloves and try to grow garlic properly.   The Casablanca were started off in pots in early March then transplanted to their growing place in late March.  Now they are going brown and withering.  What do you think I've done wrong.  The onions and shallots in the same area are fine.  If you would like pics, can do.
