I was reading earlier that peat free compost in particular is producing poor results this year . I will see if I can find the article.I only had one seed germinate each for cucumber, green courgette and yellow courgette. I think I planted 4 or 5 of each which usually gives me 3 plants of each so I have spares but no spares this year. I think many people are having poor germination this year. Don’t know if it’s the seeds or the compost.
thank youCould you stake him upright?
I switched to peat free this year and a lot of my seeds either haven’t germinated, or have just taken ages to get to planting out size!I was reading earlier that peat free compost in particular is producing poor results this year . I will see if I can find the article.
Thing is if the peat is in it you can end up with a load of shamrockI switched to peat free this year and a lot of my seeds either haven’t germinated, or have just taken ages to get to planting out size!
It will struggle a lot. If you do ever manage to ever get fruit they will be pretty tasteless. I think they need at least 6 hours of full sun to produce decent fruit.Will an apple tree grow in shade? Because of the orientation of my garden the best place for it to go is in a north facing corner
I put one in a large tub last year and it's thriving in a corner of the patio, lots of fruit on it.Will an apple tree grow in shade? Because of the orientation of my garden the best place for it to go is in a north facing corner

Wow, where are you? Must be a warmer climate than the UK!Woohoo finnaly repotted the tomatoes and jalapeños today. Haven't had the time yet but now it's done! Looking good so far! Also the rhubarb has 6 huge stalks and there's still more coming but traditionally we don't harvest it after June 24th here. Gonna make some rhubarb strawberry jam this weekend!
The redcurrants are also ready and so tastyand the raspberries are going mental, they've taken over the whole bed gonna dig them out in autum and put them in a pot as I think they'll overtake the whole garden if I let them...
The slugs those fuckers have razed my kohlrabi and one of the fennels, and my spinach and radishes. But the coffe grounds seem to be helping my cucumbers and sweet peas, so, thanks for the tip!!!
Now I just need to figure out a trellis for my grapes...
