  • Hello from Leicestershire

    Hi all,
    Just recently joined the forum and wanted to say hello.
    We have had our allotment for three years now, which we took on as a piece of meadow that had never been worked before.
    Although we have only just joined we have been lurking for ages and have found loads of really good and much needed advice from this site.
    For us, this is the year of the brassica. I've always struggled with them and whilst I can get a hispi to grow I have never had a cauli or calabrese :-( So hopefully, this is the year!

    All advice welcome!

        Hello and welcome. Broccoli are fine here, but no cauli's for me either.

                  Welcome to the vine JJ. Multi-quoting is easy. Go to the first post you want to quote, and click the multi-quote button (looks like a little speech bubble with a + against it on the bottom right of the post box), then go to the next post you want to quote, and click the multi-quote button again. When you get to the last post you want to quote, click the <Reply with Quote> button, and you will get a quick reply box with all the quotes in.

                  So if you only want to quote 2 posts, click multi-quote on the first, then <Reply with Quote> on the second, and add your comments in the box, then post it.

                        So with any luck this should look OK!
