I am NOT going to grow spares next year. I am NOT NOT NOT!!!

[strawberry1]

How the heck am I going to stop myself? I have given away what I can but I cannot throw perfectly good plants out.

Take my tomatoes, I have 11 under good cover, 3 under part cover, 6 that I have had to uncover because they grew so fast, 4 with good rain shelter and 2 in decent pots. Now they have to face the smith warnings and we are due days of rain, so I`ll worry about them. Next year I want SIX!!!   ::)

I am too embarrassed to tell the chilli/pepper tale

and my lettuces, well we are just about to eat them for breakfast too

Put them on freecycle, or on a table in front of your house for people to take with a donation for charity?

I said that last year  ::) so this year I've only given plants away to people at work, down the lottie, strangers in the street............
As for peppers ive managed to start 2 people growing stuff with chillies in the conservatory. so I'm getting a little better.  ;D ;D

Guilty as charged...  ::)

But you need to keep some spares (and keep on keeping some spares) because you go to the allotment in the morning and see that a cat / fox has sauntered across and nonchalantly broken off one of the 15 Borlotti beans that you've planted out (just as well 16 germinated but now defensive measures are required - where did I put that land mine?)
