A new 2m x 3m Amateur vegetable patch + one border & several pots!

Welcome to GoY, Pita. You sound excited about your garden plans. That's great. Keep us posted?

Welcome from me too!

i hope it all grows well, im sure you will like this site ~ lots of us like photography and cookery too!!

Sounds well thought out Pita, we all learn as we go along and also get veg that bolt and definitely too many toms.
I hope you have a good year and welcome from me too....

Hello, Pita, you sound like a person after my own heart. We just got a little plastic greenhouse, and I can't believe how great it is! I am out there all hours of the day. Looking forward to swapping notes.

Hello Pita, I recognise the signs of a life long habit as it is how I stared. The first couple of years I grew far to much of everything - but I made some great swaps etc.

Welcome to the world of gardening ,have to warn you it is very addictive but in a good way Good luck with the veg
there is nothing compares with the taste of something you have nurtured and grown yourself.
Happy growing :)

Welcome from me too and good lack with your vegetables. To my poor knowledge, bolting is usually a result of early sowing and a changeable weather

Oooh, Costas, I like your new avatar!

Oooh, Costas, I like your new avatar!
I'm sorry, this has appeared twice for some strange reason and I can't get rid of it!

Good luck with your vegetables. I hope you get a good crop :o)

Welcome to GOY Pita.
Make sure you put lots of pics on of your veg as it grows.

Welcome to GOy Pita, you will love it here on GOY,anything you wish to know then just ask, wonderful people who will help you, good luck with your garden,

can you let us know when you start harvesting please? we like soup and pasta on here too!!!

I just re-read your blog and the bit about the "big fat happy worms" and smiled to think how a little feathered friend of mine would like your garden. Our neighbour keeps a large and very unruly gang of ducks and geese, and there's one who's learnt that theres a little gap under our fence that she can squeeze through, and she spends her day in our garden. If I am digging, she stays close by me, darting in to catch the worms, and her eyesight must be incredible. She is my constant gardening companion, ignoring the cats, who come to watch us. I'm not entirely happy about the wholesale worm catching, but I don't discourage her, a) because she's a sweet little thing, and b) because when she's not eating our worms, she's a fantastic way of getting rid of snails (for some reason we scarcely see slugs any more) and rushes round the rainy garden, hoovering them up in a happy feeding frenzy. The day I catch her snapping the tops off my lettuces, however, the gap in the fence gets mended.

Hi everyone! Thank you so much for all your support and lovely comments - what a very nice bunch of 'gardening friends' you are!
I'll be sure to take photos as my worm fest garden matures and will try and think of other recipes apart from tomato soup and pasta sauces if I get too many tomatoes again! (hee hee)

Wishing you all a wonderful Easter!

Love Pita xxx

Trouble is, Pita, when there's a glut of tomatoes in the garden, it's MUCH too hot to want to stand cooking in a kitchen.......Happy Easter to you, too.
