Hi All
Looking for alternatives to cauli and broccoli in my brassica section of the garden. Fed-up feeding the butterflies and white fly, going to carry on with sprouts but wondering what else can be grown here?

Many thanks
Geoff

Could someone explain the best way to tie onion up, I managed last year, but I know it wasn't the right way.

Cheers

Hi all Just lifted by pickling onions for the year(Shakespeare Brown Pickling, sown like spring onions, with no thinning) and the sizes were very disappointing at least half were too small. I was wondering if I could keep these small onions for next year and use as shallots. All thoughts and comment...

Thanks both for your replies, sanders your right mine look just the same as those advertised by ferndale.

Many thanks again for your help.

Hi All I would like to replace the plastic on my cloche's, I've had them that long that I don't know who made them, the legs fold-up and each cloche is about 2ft long, the plastic is supplied as a sleeve which you pass the folded legs into(hope that made sense). Any suggestions Cheers Sky Blue

Good point Richard hadn't thought of that, there asda cheap ones.
