Pumpkins later on.

onions, potatoes, beans (runner and french), strawberries and cherry toms (put both in hanging baskets)

carrots are easy if you're not bothered about being able to eat them, mine were like biros last year

VictorianSqualor · 05/03/2008 18:03

Strawberries and cherry toms can go in hanging baskets?

GooseyLoosey · 05/03/2008 18:06

Beans, beetroot (although never know what to do with them), oak leaf lettuce and other sharp tasting varities (less appealing to slugs), salad onions.

On no account: cauliflower, broccoli, carrots (ours were all about 4cms long).

SlartyBartFast · 05/03/2008 21:17
