Fruit and Vedgetables

[JK04]

What fruit and vedgetables does everyone here grow in their gardens? And is there anything you've grown or tried to grow before that you wouldnt try again??

[Androcles]

Not having much luck with mangoes and pineapples.......probably won't try again

Broad beans were really useless, and covered with black fly, which meant that they infested the runner beans nearby as well. Definitely not growing them again.

I've had great success this year with peas, beetroot, runner beans, kohl rabi, cabbage, raspberries, carrots and broad beans. I fertilised the patch with the contents of the kitchen waste bin which had been composting for 2 years, best fertiliser I've ever used! Made with tea bags, potato peelings cabbage leaves etc...also added worms to help with the composting!
One crop I have lost twice in the past few years is the sweetcorn - trampled down and eaten by a badger!!
