Helloooo! Another new place eh! Not been around so much, internet is very patchy atm, I hope it improves when everybody goes back to work lol

Off for a mooch around to see what's  what and who has made it here …...

Have you noticed anything different about G&G recently? 

A place to record all your chutney & jam making antics. 

3 jars of courgette & tomato chutney

OK acrid nymphs or to the more edumacated acronyms. 

Let’s play fellow growers. 

Example - SWAT7D

= Snow White and the 7 Dwarves. 

WC

= White Christmas

It doesn’t have to be film or music but a hint with each might be good. 

OK G2’s

QE2?

Hello Folks

Again prep work for next year. I’m looking at getting some comfrey and wondered whether I should go for plugs/plants or seeds, if the former thoughts on how many?

On the back of receiving 10 plants this week. ....

What supports do you use for yours?

I've a couple of Montana - they are group 1 and don't need cutting back and are pretty much thugs.

I've also got some Viticellas - group 3. Fast growing and are generally chopped right back in Spring and flower on all new growth.

Every year my golden Acer gets a great crop of leaves but then it looks like the start falling apart and getting ragged. Any ideas why ?, I have only just started feeding it with grow more fertiliser.

JUST SCATTER & SOW

I've never grown turnips - not sure I've ever eaten one, definitely never cooked with one.  I'm aware the can go into stews but what else can you do with a turnip?  I have so many freebie pkts of turnip seed, maybe you lot can convince me to grow some.

Would it be useful to have a thread with a list of commonly used acronyms made on here as a reference tool for users? Maybe we could all throw a list together and then someone compile it in to an easy to view alphabetical list?
