I'm new to gardening and it's fast becoming my favourite pastime. I've just brought my first Sweet pea plugs and am after advice to plant them. I have cans, in a great sunny spot, but when I look at the plants in the tray they are very spindly by Michael Yeowell

Runner beans plants decimated up to 4 feet
We have a problem on our 48 allotments.   Everyone's runner beans, peas, beetroot leaves and sweetcorn are being eaten.  The beans are totally decimated up to 4 feet and the tops left intact.  The leaves and beans are all eaten but the main stalk by Vernon Herridge

+ peas, salad, tomatoes, cucumbers, kale & some bedding flowers & sweet peas started indoors. Outside I cut back last year's chard that I didn't bother pulling up, & now have some useable leaves on it which is a bonus. I find it helps to keep an eye by Drlloyd
