I grew trench celery for the first time this year, kept it watered and earthed it up - I wrapped it in newspaper , put a chimney pot over, and filled it with spent potting compost. They grew into fine strong healthy looking plants.
I've just tried the first one, and I've got a lot of smallish tough stems with plenty of pest damage and a bit of rot.
So much for my dreams of munching a huge stem with cheese!
I never mind a crop failing (all that much) if I know what to try differently next year, so I'd be very glad of any advice or tips.
