Question for ya DST? Im getting into the krims and black prince variety of toms this year. Any experience with them? I had tried a black cherry from a farmers market and it was amazing. But its tough to find those varieties here. Everyone carries the same strains. From Home Depot to the garden stores. I finally came across some clones. I ahave a black prince, cherry, and a krim. So imma have a go outside with them this season. PEACEandLOVE

spring has finally sprung in blighty, it's actually warm ish today. and summertime starts tomorrow lmao. if the veggie thread still going? maybe we should kick another one off if there's not already.

your going to be stowed out with tommies! make sure you leave enough for the outdoor ganj plants ;) lol

i've moved my carrot tub out into the conservatory this after, i'll be pissed if it snows again next week. tomorrow i'm planning on filling up the tubs and planting a load of stuff, i got white strawberries, red and white onionsand some flowers, night scented stock and lupins.

Hi Xub, never had any experience with those varieties to be fair, they sound funky though! Please let me see some pics when they get going?

For some reason, the word Lupins makes me smile:)

flowers for bees are GOOOOOOD!!!!!

I had a weed grow out a pot last year and it turned into this lovely little flower, my wife was obsessed with it so I never pulled it. Bee's were at it all day long.....

i'm kinda allergic to wasps. and I imagine bees too though they're less aggressive. still i run like a little girl though :roll:

i've got a honeysuckly i'm getting up to size for a piece of trellis in the garden. it's looking good so far, bees also love them lol.

I really want some nice loungers of furniture for the garden but i know for a fact if i get some we'll have the crappest summer in a decade.#


Edit: any dolce rosso snips going spare!?! lol i joke lol.kind of, BnQ are piss poor selection wise. I think i'm going to order some baby plumb varieties and i'm overdue a chilli plant.

i looked like john merrick for a week after a wasp stung me in the eyelid. couldn't go out the house it was that bad.

aye a rosso snipper would be good cheers, it's been in your garden long enough it must be canny lmao. 1 week root time is impressive for most plants.

i'm going to tackle the back garden today. looking forward to it. i should have prepped it all last autumn but the way the seasons are moving it was like Autumn for a week of wind then it was winter :( they'll have to suffer and early prune in spring. lol no it's summer today so 'm hoping i've got the season change right.

indoor is so much easier hahaha

Im terrified of wasps, bees dont bother me a bit even though I get stung by them more often... Maybe something to do with a massive wasp attack when I was a kid lol

I would knock down all of the wasp nests every year because I thought they were bad. Then I found out that they eat aphids. Now we are good buddies :)






They still try to build nests in some places where I must remove them but for the most part we are good friends now.


A couple other new pics from the garden:

Rose (I cant wait to see the Tulips):
