About me

I live in a small flat with a 1.50 metre (5ft) by 3.50 metre (10ft) balcony but still manage to squeeze in 100s of plants.

I've been gardening since I was a boy - now nearly 50 years!

I publish a lot on a forum called BeyondSpace where there is a thread on there, under Hobbies, with a gardening section called "Gardening & Horticulture" in which I post from time to time.

I'm also into growing veg on my own allotment as well as helping out on my friend, Gerry's, allotments. I have only two seasons experience of growing veg so I'm still a little "wet" behind the ears!

You will find fortnightly updates, during the height of the growing season, posted by me.
