Poor crop of tomatoes this year so chucked them all in the bin 
They were grown outside and the cold nights ruined them . Won't
bother anymore when you can buy a pack for
99p

I know how you feel. I have just the opposite trouble- too hot. Our July was the hottest since records began in 1942.

Planted mine May21st. Big fruit tomatoes that grow up canes. Everyone seems to have had the same trouble. I have three normal size fruits developing  from eight plants watered daily

Doing well here. No difference between the greenhouse grown and the spare plants growing outdoors.

One pack of seeds resulted in 80 plants.

Ripening at a rate we can eat them so far but preparing for the onslaught to come.

I've had a decent crop of runner beans but they don't seem as tasty as usual, a little watery....    Any ideas?

Had a few mutant tomatoes , some with little spike shapes growing out and a few double ones  must be the acid rain ive been watering them with  Now at least there's enough rain water stored for the rest of the year

Most supermarkets toms taste of precisely nothing. The big 'salad tomatoes' being the worst.

I got three plants off a fella who has an allotment at the back. I potted them, left them outside and ignored them. Got a load of lovely, tasty cherry toms.

I watered and fed mine , this is how they repay me  Its a bit like tending to your omega , leave it alone and all is fine .. start fettling with it and it plays up

Much the same with women.

Mother in law had that problem last year... This year she planted extra plants... Greenhouse is bursting at the seams!!!

We used to get a regular supply of surples tomatoes, home grown by our elderly neighbour, so full of flavour, far more than in any supermarket tomato........

Sadly he passed away last year, and his wife is unable to keep up with everything they did............
