So, what fruit or veg are you growing this year?

[Horton]

I'm doing tomatoes, bunching onions, parsley, pak choi, salad leaves of various kinds and have figs, bramley apples, pears and blackcurrants. Thinking about getting a gooseberry bush.

[zaphod]

Cauliflower, tomatoes, cucumber, courgette, broadbeans, peas, snow peas, pumpkins,cabbage, lettuce, spring onion, dwarf runnerbeans, and I'm trying squash, pak choi and baby corn. As I speak dh is making 2 small raised beds for me so I can sow more than last year. And carrots. Ds likes to grow Katy carrots (the round ones) but they are impossible to peel so this year we're just doing ordinary ones.

It sounds like a lot when I write it like that. Anyway I'm lucky that I have a small veg patch at a friends house, where we also share a large greenhouse. I absolutely love this time of year, sowing the flowers and veg, potting on, even weeding and digging.

[Horton]

Wow, that sounds fabulous. I have been potting up seedlings this afternoon and it is really satisfying, isn't it?

I forgot, I also have some peas and beans on the go.
