    Oi,oi!!

    Hi all!

    I am new to this growing veg lark.

    I used to grow some veg in my Dads garden when I was younger then became a teenager and discovered women and alcohol

    I have just moved into a house wiyh a reasonable sized back garden which I have decided to turn over to veg.

    There are already some cordon gooseberries,a fan trained plum tree and some strawberriies already here and I have planted some potatoes and Peas.

    It is mostly weed ridden and as I am fairly inexperienced I hopefully will be turning to you for advice.

    My main hobby is computer gaming but as I am nearly about to turn 50 I thought I had better get a hobby that involves fresh air!

                I just LOVE your username, especially as I have been unmercifully teased by my offspring over my pronunciation of the original, Darth (Var)der (as in 'car')! Welcome to the Vine (from a newbie!..)

                    (just need to have a word with my mates here) He is a new boy, be it 50 years old, even a first timer so treat him gently poor lad - it is gardening thread after all.
