    Another option would be growing in containers/pots. Lots of us do that, whether we have a plot or not.
    Do you have room for a greenhouse, even one of those "blowaway " ones as that would give you more scope to grow tomatoes and the warm weather lovers?

      Thanks for asking 1Bee.

      It's a rental so can't do much.
      There are three muddy spots in the yard I could dig up plus a small patch in the front of the house. Sorry I tried to add new photos but I keep getting an error message.

      I've put up a big blowaway or flyaway was it called?

      I also have some plastic troughs and pots to go on a paved area. Have used all those planters up now & am trying to amass a collection of used ones.

        Bren in Pots,

        Sorry, sorry, sorry I just have to comment, you've got an interesting profile pic... as if you're a pothead.

        What exactly are you growing in those pots? Or mayhap better not to ask?

            It's not a Keder but it's getting the job done.

            Thanks for the tips :-)

              Hi and welcome to the vine

              Can't blame you wanting to join for the seed swaps (they are great). However do have a good mooch around as there is loads of fab stuff on the vine and peeps are lovely. You will soon make your 50 posts

                  Hi Squingy when I first joined the vine I grew only in pots, containers, boxes well anything really that would hold soil/compost then after a couple of years we filled in a pond, dug out and freecycled shrubs all to make me some veg beds.
                  As for my avatar my husband suggested I put a pot on my head
