Re: Hi Dave
Hi Arah,
I am sure all on the list found your first posting interesting, as
indeed I did. With your long growing season, even with a small
garden, you should be able to grow masses of veggies. Apart from the
basic goodies like all the salad veg, root crops, brassicas, beans et
al, you will be able to grow peppers, pimentoes, squashes, sweet
potatoes and many others. I have a small garden so I grow lots of veg
in containers. All my herbs are in containers, as are my potatoes and
some salad crops. I have three varieties of tomatoe growing in big
pots and they are doing quite well, but not so well as I had hoped!!
I think that what you must do is to establish your soil type and pH
and go from there. What I will do is to type up a small soil primer
over the weekend and send it off to you next week after the Bank
holiday. The answer lies in the soil, me hearties!!
Catch you later, Dave.
