Yes, I have to agree.

As a new member i can't believe the amount of subjects of interest covered on this forum but i guess we all enjoy the same thing, although I'm a sucker for nice pictures.
Try my best to be Organic but don't always make it

I buy Organic Gardening from my shop every month.

Used to buy Kitchen Garden but then it seemed to get bought out or taken over and became too commercial for my liking.
Gardening organically on chalky, stony soil.

Thanks for thie link.  I've just ordered mine, a bargin. For Mothers day my children can now buy me some pink wellies instead of the magazine subscription which I hinted at.

That's made my day!

I've just realised that all the magazines are half price. I've just ordered two gift subscriptions one for my Dad and Gardeners World for my Mum.

Too good to miss.

im just coming to the end of 12 months subscription for g.y.o
her indoors says i wont be renewing it. well see.
and weekly gardening news ive been getting that from news agent for years. its interesting to note that the amount of space they allocate to veg growing has increased quite a lot in the last 18 months. good read for the price.

I have a subscription to GYO and usually complement this with Kitchen Garden. I find these answer most of my questions and have great offers and competitions.

I also picked up this month's Gardener's World which had a brilliant section from Carol Klein on planning the plot for this year.

More and more however, this forum becomes my first source of advice.

I may be about to post the stupidestest question in the history of this forum, but here goes nutt'n!

I recently received my first copy of Kitchen Garden - and a right rollicking read it is too. However, it is dated April 2007.

Now I know most magazines do date their publications a month or so ahead (although I have no idea why) but for a gardening mag this leads to the following confusion for newbies, in so far as:

When the article says "Grow Your Courgettes Now!" does "Now" mean now (as in today, early March) or now as in "now" for when the magazine is dated (ie, April).
Veg? That's chips, innit?

It gets evenmore confusing as Gardeners World decided to buck the trend so the date on the front is this months date,Organic Gardening felt the need to move a monthahead but didn`t change the inside!
