Whether it’s an allotment, kitchen garden or just cress on a window shelf
What are your growing plans for this year and does it give you great pleasure to see the fruits (and vegetables) of your work come to life |

I always like the idea of growing my own fruit and veg, but I’ve never managed to do anything much with it. I had two tomato plants and a chilli plant for Easter so let’s see what I managed to make of those.

Looking to move around the garden.
Just move plants from the front to the back.
Then cut back some plants and build a climbing frame xxx |

"I have an apple, pear and plum tree in my garden, love em 😋
A great selection. Would love a Cherry tree but I fear the pigeons would eat them all. "
I don't like cherries, but I would love a Cherry blossom tree, just too big for my garden. |

Absolutely love it … currently my daughter is left in charge watering so fingers crossed !!
I make cider from the apple trees approx 150/200 litres a year
Garden raised bed vegetables to freeze
Potty Marrons squash types herb garden bed etc
Love growing garlic Jerusalem artichokes ( more common than potatos which were v much a staple pre the import of potatoes- chilli plants etc
Love it OP. shop bought Veg is a necessity too of course but generally from what I have read only has now approx 15/20% of the minerals compared to veg growing just after the second w war !
So if you can grow something … then the gut benefits and you are loads better off ! |

"Nothing exciting. Mint, strawberries and raspberries. I'm a lazy gardener"
Plant onions next to your strawberries plants keeps the pest away and keep the soil from being to waterlogged strawberry plants dont thrive in to wet soil  |

We always did various tomatoes, green beans, zucchini, squash, radishes carrots and various herbs. One year we when had an accidental pumpkin patch when a Halloween pumpkin was added to the compost pile. |
