Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

ok, the three have been saved, with tall this wet weather tha bag garden is a glastonbury-like snail-fest, so all the edible plants are out on the front drive.

Two of them will look quite good in the end once the new leave come through, not champions but will do well, they're probably at 2-3 foot tall now.....piccies when they look better.....it's a beauty pageant too.

Mine has cleared the fence so can benefit from sunlight much longer now :-) Started to develop a flower head now though so it's height growth may well stop :-/

I have a small head developing on mine. It's not very tall though - I think it's reached it's peak at around 4 foot. That's what comes of planting what's in my seed tin rather than going for a Giant variety :-)
