I don't have any secret with sweetcorn. They just get planted into toilet tube inners and they do the rest.<br /><br />Thanks for visiting, Citydiggity. Lettuce are quite easy to grow so I'm sure you will be successful.<br /><br />My thinking exactly, Liz. I'm sure if I planted lettuce at the allotment there wouldn't be much left of it as the slugs would get there first.<br /><br />I am extremely enthusiastic Bangchik and Kakdah. I'm not sure that enthusiasm will ensure a good harvest though, but I'll do my best. Thanks for your good wishes, and for dropping in.<br /><br />I'm not a huge fan of garden centres, Maureen, but I think that Wyevale is one of the best. It's great when you can grab a bargain. Wyevale reduce all their seeds to 50p at the end of the season so I usually pop by then and stock up.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-42583160000275858632009-05-19T21:58:00.000+01:002009-05-19T21:58:00.000+01:00I love those wooden boxes.

I was at wyvale today and picked up a couple of sale plants for next to nothing, they just need a bit of TLC, I do love a bargain.<br />I also grow the cut and come again salad leaves in the garden. It's handy to have them there outside the kitchen door.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15540591998909116816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-710088079676379912009-05-19T16:35:00.000+01:002009-05-19T16:35:00.000+01:00I am sensing alot of enthusiasm in your writing ab...I am sensing alot of enthusiasm in your writing about gardening...

I want them close at hand for salad you see. We have too biggish wooden troughs that provide enough to take us right through the summer. When they're in the garden it makes slug patrol much easier as well :-)<br />http://organicallotment.typepad.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02190046030217306184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-20588086741717581072009-05-19T07:33:00.000+01:002009-05-19T07:33:00.000+01:00I am attempting to grow lettuce on a windowsill, a...I am attempting to grow lettuce on a windowsill, and I like your chances more than mine ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-87978219597823173922009-05-18T17:51:00.000+01:002009-05-18T17:51:00.000+01:00Hello!

Our cabbage were on their way out, the wilting leaf thing, and it seems that they were too hot in the greenhouse - we bunged them outside and about 6 of the 8 have come back to life! They may be too hot...? Not sure. It worked for us.<br /><br />27 sweetcorn! Wow! I've never been very good with them - what your secret!
