Hi all, been missing for a while, life getting in the way, recovering from surgery after having a tumour removed from one of my kidneys, it seems it takes longer to get back up to speed when you get a bit older. Hope all are well and the gardens are bountiful, mine seems to be doing fine, though the Parsnips have failed to germinate and that was two packets I tried too.

Thanks Monika, I am to have regular CT scans to monitor if the cancer has gone or not, next one is due beginning of August, hopefully they got it all out with the surgery.

Thanks Westi. I have stepped back from a lot of forums that I used to be on, but now on the mend I've returned to the place which seems to be the friendliest. Hope you are well.

Thanks Robbo, I am hearing from a few gardeners that some seed is not 100% this year, I have had a clear out of a lot of seed that was a few years old, but the Parsnips were both brand new seeds
