It's a great idea to plant in pots, I wish I had grown my potatoes that way, Charlie has just dug them up for me

We have Tomatoes in the greenhouse/cold frame type thing we have, we are also growing Beetroot and Spring onions in containers and have a number of strawberry plants as well, and all are doing wonderfully well at the moment
we have many small green toms. on two different types of plants, two plants are the cherry type and one plant is the normal size tom. (whatever that is these days 
) our strawberries are two different varieties as well, one is mid season and one late season, the only thing is the lates are ripening before the mids 
but they've never lasted long enough to do anything with as, as soon as they are ripe, they get picked and eaten while still warm 
I love eating the strawberries still warm from the sun.

Clive wants to have a go at growing veg, on a small scale but I think this years gone too fast for us and we haven't had a chance to even think about it properly...maybe next year

The waiting is definitely the hardest part when it comes to veg growing. The only thing I've got ready to eat at the moment is lettuce and I'm not a big fan of the stuff!!
I've never had any luck with lettuce, dunno why.
