Does anyone have a recipe for a marrow chutney
Like many of you I have just found a rather large courgette. I'm not a fan of stuffed marrow but I was wondering if anyone had an interesting marrow chutney recipe. I prefer spicy chutneys although any recipe would be welcome. Many thanks.

Nasturtium seed pods - can they be pickled?

Re: broad beans
Being a Hungry caterpillar I can't wait for large beans to develop so I pick the pods when they are still tender, chop them up and eat bean and pod. Very tastey.

Potatoes in compost bin are they edible
The potatoes growing in my raised beds have just gone down with blight as usual, thanks to the very damp weather we experiencing in Cornwall. However I do have a large potato plant growing out of my compost bin which is blight free at the moment. Can I eat the potatoes that come from this plant?

Re: Slow Squash?
Hello everyone I've just joined to forum as I'm getting a bit depserate - everything is slow in my beds - infact everything is minuterised. My courgettes, peas, runner beans, sunflowers just aren't growing. I have to garden in deep raised beds which are lined with plastic as my garden soil is very c...
