Rhubarb. I bought some plants a few years back and they died over winter. Then I tried from seed and they came to nothing. Last year I bought three nice plants, which came back this year, don't have too many stalks and have rust. I am watering them plenty and keeping them mulched. Hopeful that next year I'll have a crop

Carrots, until i started growing in flower buckets

Would you believe it sprouts, but on my plot, not one single person has managed to grow "sprouts" 
In all the years on different sites never been a problem, but for some unknown reason they just blow on this one, its become a yearly challange, I give one plot holder half a row in which to grow them.
This year I am trying the brukale, kale/ sprout cross.
Other than that, every thing else seems ok.

Forgot about carrots. Was going to give up but have put some on high tubs to see what happens.

Tried it and hated it 

Never grew it since  :happy:

I always seem to work harder them most of the other plot holders to grow a decent batch of Carrots

I've always had problems with spring onions too.  This year I'm growing them in  pots and so far they are looking good. 

I would love to grow main crop potatoes but its a waste of time, money and effort here as the crop gets so damaged by slugs.  Ive thought about nematodes but the cost makes it hardly worth doing.

Start your spring onions off in a 3" pot then when they have germinated plant out with a bulb planter 

Never fails  :happy:

difficult to are onions from sets and carrots.

onions never grow big enough always small, not sure why. carrots never big enough.

i'll never give up though. next year will try growing from onion seeds see what results i get.
