I've got two pots on the go now.  I've used some already but it's still a bit small.  I made the mistake of putting them out to sunbathe and the wind got up and dashed them to bits. The grass grows very tall!  I have trimmed off all the damaged grass and taken them down to the cold greenhouse where I'm going to remove the top compost and replace with fresh, lots of it, to protect them from frost. I shall probably add some sacking etc. They could remain in the conservatory over winter I suppose  

I think if they come through the winter they will be ready for eating next year.
