Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

Noshed, what are you going to do with so many seed potatoes? Do you have a large enough plot?

As DD says we have a little shop on our site. I collected our order yesterday from one of the other sites which had done a big order for us and a few others. There were sacks everywhere!
