Where are my vegetables?

of the staples come through. One thought, did you 'chit' the potatoes when you put them in, and have they gone into the ground, or did you put them in potato planters/tyres? Did you enrich the ground before planting anything? Carrots will grow in almost by Diane Horsley

Clayey soil

well in clay, particularly cabbages and brussels. Don't bother with carrots until the soil has been improved for a couple of years, they just won't grow well from my experience I too have clay soil. I have found peas seem to do really well. by METAL MAN GARDENER

vegetables and horse manure

a bit of horse manure to the compost bins. Best not to sow carrots in freshly manured soil. They often grow in a "fork" shape then, so although their weight/volume might be OK, the useable part (after any peeling etc) will be less than it would by Tractorboy
