the hip gardener?

I feel the title ‘hip gardener’ might be a tad over stated, in both the ‘hip’ and the ‘gardener’ sense of the word.  Two of my reasons for doing the blog are as follows…a) I have nothing else good to blog about b) I think it might help me organise my gardening thoughts and actually make some good progress in the garden… I have always had a bit of an interest in growing veggies – must have come from my farming roots.When I was doing an A Level Biology project I decided to do a trial testing whether Miraclegro would help my pea plants to grow better. It did of course – the tested ones were more fruitful, stronger and taller than the others. Of course now I’m grown up i’ve gone all organic so i’m more into wormeries than chemical based fertilisers.My lovely kind husband built me a greenhouse and tore up part of our lawn for some raised beds last Easter and we grew quite a few things, but now is the time to consider what to grow this year and when to do it..
