Benny 0 Posted November 20, 2011 Sunflowers were a successful venture for me last year. They were very easy to grow, just sow the seeds in a tray or in the ground and thin them out later as they grow quite quickly as they are large shoots. I grew one flower the size of a dinner plate but the others were the smaller type, they were in the same packet so goodness knows why that happened. Had good Sweet Williams , Asters, Dahlias without much hassle but they needed constant watering and feeding. that is as far as I went this year, next year will be interesting as to how well I can grow other things.

nevermind, neoliberalism has had it 159 Posted September 8, 2012 blighted tomatoes and potatoes, but chillis and eggplants are ok. This year was poor overall due tom the rain, germination was abysmal and I had slugs galore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
