Broad beans

Is it recommended to pinch out the growing tips of broad beans? Hi Russell, only when they are fully grown (ie about 3-4ft tall) and that is only to prevent blackfly infestation. I usually wait until one plant has a sign of blackfly, then pinch out by Russell Parry

Coldframes

't think height is much of an issue. We have small people who enjoy a little football in the garden. I think the main uses would be to overwinter tender perennials in pots and young plant seeded in autumn plus providing more space to germinate once by KathrynJane

Standard Fuscia problem

resolve it? In a container or in the ground? If its a standard it should be grown in a pot and overwintered in a greenhouse or conservatory . If it's not hardy it will die and if it is hardy it will die back and shoot from the base and be a standard by Leogirl

Lupins from seed

ripen first. Leave the flowering stalk on the plant until the pods turn brown, then cut them off and you can collect the seed by opening the pods. You can sow them straight away if you have a coldframe to overwinter the young plants in, or save them by Caroline Bridges

chillies all year round and some of our plants were years old. I like you tried to overwinter but gave up and just keep the seeds now but start early in the season. This year I was harvesting chillies in July and still have much to go... I do understand by jk

, as I moved the main big plant into the garden at the end of last Summer. I took the offsets as a bit of an experiment so they were overwinted in a coldframe and then I planted them out earlier this year. I think if you did it now they wouldn't take by kate1123
