Looking really good windy, the Totem will be small enough to stay on the window cill in 5 inch pots and you should definitely get tomatoes on them. The Sungold grow quite tall and fast and will have to be outside for you, the wind will be a real challenge for them though, but the flavour is worth the effort!

Well here they are now...a few yellow leaves but they've so far survived a good hooly. Have already got a few flowers on the totem... Here's our first crop of radishes that we had a few weeks ago, all from seeds sent to me by Daggers... And we're at the 'giving away lettuce' stage already!! The main veg patches are not doing so well The slugs have had every pumpkin thats sprouted, 3 sowings of carrots,a good munch on me sweetcorn...but they haven't touched the onions or the garlic so at least we'll get some of those this year! Have just ripped up my well gone over purple sprouting so have a virtually empty patch to play with now. Watch this space!!

Onions and garlic are too hot for slugs and snails Windy, next time put them inbetween the lettuces and other tender veg. they will run a mile.

Well done windy, the radishes look terrific, the lettuce looks great, and your tomatoes are probably better than mine, good luck with the Sungold tomatoes at least I can watch yours growing, I have lost all mine this year due to going on holiday and they have got too leggy. The Gartenperle look a bit week as well, but fingers crossed.
