Hello and welcome, you'll find a lot of helpful information on this site and here's to a happy harvest. Have you an allotment or garden, or are you container growing?Granny on the Game in Sheffield -
Welcome. I joined myself fairly recently and IMHO it is one of the nicest forums around, gardening or otherwise. This is also my first full year of growing and I am enjoying all the mistakes I am making
The guys here are a real help though and don't seem to mind people asking the same questions over and over again 
Hopefully I will be able to start harvesting shortly and I am trying not to eat all the peas as the pods ripen!Comment

Morning Ian - I actually managed to get some peas to the steamer this week. The taste is just incredible, sweet, sweet, sweet.Granny on the Game in SheffieldComment
