great job there matey .observations are .the courgettes do better outside .you dont need to water em so much if it rains .also the insects can definatly get to em ....the tom plants are in a to small a pot you will fefinatly get loads more with a bigger pot try collecting 10 gallon drums or old buckets

safeways /morrisons sold these 5 for a £1 a few yrs back and even they are to small for the canadian vareties i am growing this year

but congrats i reckon ur off to a grand start

thank-you sir!

the tom plants i was given to save and thats how they comer (they had blight i cut it all off and they grew back nice)

and the courgettes where planted late so i thought i may get a crop in there where it would be warmer for longer, but still not sure if they will come to anything or what ive got to do with them

i just realy wanted to do something with it as i had got it built, everything is growing well tho.

ive planted the small tom plants into the greenhouse today (direct into the rased bed ground) and will heep a heater in there so fingers crossed will have winter toms

nice one ,, give the courgettes a feed of sulphate ( superphosphate) potash n sulphate of ammonia teaspoon of each to a plant in pint water

toms will respond to that as well so you can give the other toms a drop in a couple weeks when the roots have started to search nutrients /pint to 2 plants when the fruit sets dont forget the tomorite if you use it .or good old farm manure in water
