Hi guys

[Northerlights]

Sorry for the late introduction,joined last summer and here I am only introducing myself now....boooo😂😂 Last year was my first attempt at growing veg in the garden (with mixed successes) I blame the cold spring up here in Aberdeenshire😂 Also first year with a polytunnel,which went quite well,loads of cucumbers,sweet corn,more green tomatoes than red ones,due to having to bin my first 3 lots of leggy seedlings,over watering them!! And was quite chuffed I got some Emir melons.I also have a mad obsession with trying to produce great looking hanging baskets,surfinia petunia and trailing begonias 👌🏻😎.My partner Fiona decided to get bees,I caught the bug instantly,2 nucs turned into 4 hives by the end of summer,2 swarms seen to that,fingers crossed they get through winter.i keep chicken and also have 9 (nine) dogs,3 German shepherds,a family of chihuahuas,mum,dad and 3 of the pups that are now 4 from a accidental litter and a wee Pomeranian.Now I’ve posted my intro I’ll be asking lots of questions over the coming months

Hello and welcome!
Lurking isn't a crime so don't worry - anyone with mad obsessions is welcome here.
It amazing how livestock numbers increase if you turn your back!! Would love to see some photos of your dogs when you've made enough posts to share images (about 10-12)

Hi and welcome to the vine! The friendliest and the nuttiest place on the intarweb

Last year was pretty rubbish for a lot of us I think - some things didn't grow at all because it didn't really get either warm, nor light. Better luck to us all this year!

Wow, you are a crazier pet person than I am! I have four cats, two dogs and a chicken

Hi and welcome to the vine

I would love to see pics of your dogs as well especially the pomeranian. The ones I have known are lovely little dogs so don't know why they are not more popular.

As for your leggy toms. Depending on just how leggy - you can often get away with burying them deeper when you pot on. They can be quite forgiving.

Looking forward to your posts
