What's your score?
Don't think I've done Number 3 but all the rest are familiar.  9/10

Can I grow ramblings red stripe in a hanging basket? Never grown a ramblings tomato before so not sure what they do or like.

Compare my cheapo ranunculus from the supermarket with Scarlet’s superb specimens!
I really like mine too, but ………. They’re not much different to poppies!

I acquired these Iris last year from the Free site but its the first time I've seen them in flower. They were described as blue and yellow and they are beautiful. 
Yesterday I thought I'd give them a treat and weed around them. It was then that I found out how fragile the stems are.    Never mind, I expect it'll be back next year and I do have some more in another bit of the garden.

The yellow Flag iris and a maroon iris are also flowering now. I really like them.

I have just purchased 5 bags of Santero onion sets for the princely sum of 10p a bag.

What's the latest anyone has planted sets and got results?
I only stand to loose 50p so thought it worth a punt.

How do you react when you spot a Scape on your Alliums? 
Do you:-
1. Cut them off
2. Pull up the allium
3. Ignore them
4. Eat them.
5. Something else?

today I was in the garden and something caught my eye, it was a cuckoo in the garden, I watched her fly over my hedge. I then noticed something in my buckthorn bush and went to investigate. This bush is about 10m high, and up in the top of it looked like a walnut but on closer investigation it appears to be a snail, about 9 m up the trunk.

   
   

Hi all,

This year I sowed the rest of my packed of Incredible F1 in the hope of finally growing decent sweetcorn. The seed sprouted well and grew to a few inches high. Then the seedlings started keeling over. They didn't have what I think of as the usual signs of damping off - overly damp soil and withered sections of stem. I planted them out and even the decent looking ones have died (three survivors out of 30 or so!). I've ordered some more seed and I'll try again – my daughter loves it and we were so excited to grow it this year that I will even look at buying plants if the new seed doesn't take off or is looking too slow to develop.

I've never had luck getting my corn to the plate, but I've also not had problems at the seedling stage before. They were going downhill before transplant so I don't think it's to do with transplant shock or root disturbance.

Any ideas other than damping off? Pro tips to avoid problems with my next batch? Should I just chit them and then transfer to the plot instead of growing into little plants first?

Thanks!

I practice a sort of No Dig, forking out mole or vole runs as needed, which can sometimes be a whole bed, but in general just mulching with compost and grass clippings to keep down the weeds and put goodness back in.
However, I've always left that year's root patch unmulched not wanting to add too much goodness, but this leaves the soil exposed to the heat and rain as well as passing weed seeds. Now I'm thinking I should be mulching here, too. 
I only grow parsnips and carrots, neither particularly successfully, in the roots rotation.
Any thoughts?

This sounds too good to be true. What do you all think?
