  • Root Trainers - What now?

    I've just planted my sweetcorn that has been growing away beautifully in my root trainers......I was a root training virgin until now.........I love em

    But what can I use them for now? I've got my beans planted so I need some inspiration as to what to use them for next.......they are washed and ready to grow!

    Loving my allotment!

    I've got a final sowing of climbing french beans to do and once all the sweetcorn and other beans hanging around in rootrainers are in the ground, mine get washed and put away till next year . Some people do a late sowing of dwarf french beans for the Autumn, that's only if you got the room!
    Jiving on down to the beach to see the blue and the gray, seems to be all and it's rosy-it's a beautiful day!

      You read my mind there Newton, I was going to post the same question. This is my first year with rootrainers. I've put some more peas in one, but I'd like suggestions for the other.

        Same here - thought I think I transplanted my sweetcorn a bit tooe arly, they roots handn't filled the modules, so compost fell to bits... they seemed to sulk for a bit, I guess I disturbed them too much

          Mine are all full of sweetcorn, beans and sweet potatoes. Don't really use them for anything else and so when those plants go out in the next week or two the root trainers will be stored in the shed until next year. I think they're fab but they're not that useful for the stuff I'm now sowing (salads, more brassicas etc) so they get to rest for a bit

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
