Hello everyone :D
« on: January 17, 2010, 18:21 »
I've not visited since last July as I damaged my back just as my crops were reaching fruition. I pretty much lost the lot apart from a few carrots, onions, beetroot, a couple of strawberries, herbs & spuds. I couldn't face it all, kind of " lost the plot" (groan!) if you like.
Anyway, we're going to try & redesign my miniscule growing area of a garden (roughly 8' x 10') plus tubs, containers, hanging baskets. If we ditch the shed & replace it with a greenhouse, I'll attempt toms & stuff, as I've had precious little luck with toms for last 3 yrs now.
I've had a go today in the garden & pruned a few shrubs, aching now lol as I'm still awaiting treatment.
Anyway, it's nice to be back after a long haul :D

if you have trouble bending you can build a square foot garden that is raised up on a table  :)
