I have planted beetroot, parsnip and peas (Feltham First-an early variety) outside and they have done nothing.
I covered them with fleece to protect them a bit and I am wondering if that was the problem. Perhaps I should have just covered them at night...
I am going to try some more peas on my window sill, but I know they dont respond well to root disturbance. I would have grown them in guttering, but I have a round teepee thing to grow them up, so thats no good for me. Is it worth growing them in toilet rolls and tying that. I presume they will rot just like those peat pot thingys (that re so expensive, by the way).
