:think: West Yorkshire. :think: Leeds, Bradford, Halifax, Huddersfield.
They do cracking curries in Bradford. If you live there I'll come and do it for food. :drool:If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -

My tallest competition bean is about 55". One of my Uncle Sid's is about a foot taller than that though. What are you feeding them? :mad:If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
Never feed them until there are beans formed. But it does help to talk nicely to them..........;)0

BEFORE (28th June 2010)

DURING (Beginning of 2011 ish)
STILL DURING (today)
It is a mess! lol. I am still digging over beds in the vegetable cage and i need a strimmer! The vegetable area and the back have been my main focus so far and the back is the kids play area. Eventually i have big plans but they are going to take a few years i estimate, to really get it to how i want. I am a single parent with 4 kids and a job so i get limited time and money to do it
DFW since JAN 2009 - 2014 will be the year i finally clear debts
Just to see which month
)))

Nowt to report from me today.
However, MrBE, the first year I did cucumbers I left them in pots. I thought they died, then they flowered. Tried rescuing them & got some very tasy but small fruit.
I'd strongly recommend planting them out. The slugs etc won't go for them as they're prickly now. The number of fruit you'll get, & also the size of the fruit will be markedly better imo.:)It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.0
