Being new to this veg growing lark! I was wondering how soon to move my toms from windowsill to my unheated greenhouse? It's pretty mild down here on the south coast,in the event of frost forcast would covering them give them adaquate protection? All advice gratefully received

Hi newbie question,have started peas and broad beans in an unheated greenhouse,do they need to be hardened off before I plant them out?

Re: Playfull labrador ruining veg patch!!
Hi thanks for the response,regarding training,no means no etc believe me thats been tried and tried from when he was a pup,maybe it's because he's a chocolate lab but he has selective memory for certain commands!! Funny though he always remembers what "time to go out" means!

Playfull labrador ruining veg patch!!
This year i've decided to try peas etc in veg patch,just as a trial I put some pea sticks in to see what would happen,the dog pulled them all out and chewed them up!! I've tried various sprays from pet shop but to little effect.Fencing it off is not an option,any ideas?
