Talkback: Wet weather on the veg plot
there will be some failures but also successes. Seem to remember it was dryer and there was more sun this time last year and stuff in the GH did well. GH veg isn't doing as well this year me thinks due to the poor light and less heat in there. Sweetcorn did well last by YewJay

Growing apricots
I'm planning to plant an apricot against the south-east facing fence of our new veg plot, and fan-train it. What area of undisturbed soil around it will it need - i.e. how close up to it can I plant my veg? Would it be better to take the bottom out by Dovefromabove
