Hi - welcome to GOY.

I can't help with veggie growing as I am a flower person - but there are plenty of members who do grow them and will be able to help - just ask!

Hi, Welcome from me too.
I moved once 3 yrs ago - never again. I hope you'll be settled now for a while so that you can concentrate on your garden,

I hope you enjoy your veg growing Lemondog. I'm relatively new too it, having concentrated on ornamentals/flowering plants until the last 3 years. I think you'll be surprised how relatively easy some veg are to germinate but of course it's the pests that can be a challenge later on. If I gave one tip(from my own bitter experience) it would be to invest in some good insect mesh to cover Brassicas, otherwise those Cabbage white butterflies will lay their eggs on them and the caterpillars will strip them. It's much healthier for you and kinder to the creatures than using chemicals! Have fun! And welcome to Goy, from a relativley new boy!
