What's your weather like 2026
After a half decent morning we are now getting tropical downpours without any warmth, so basically just blood wet. It touched 10c this morning.

I may have missed something earlier but why don't you buy a growlight?You don't have to spend a fortune on them you can get one that looks like a fluorescent tube. Hang it up over your set-up. Doesn't need to be on all day , put it on a simple time switch. It will make a huge difference.

any tips for rain and outdoor plants in containers ?
Most of my pots are next to the house/shed/wall and I find this helps shelter them from the worst of the elements

Has anyone planted a decorative garden only with edibles?
Sunflower seeds make quite nice microgreens, I used ones for birdseed, much cheaper! Batchelors dried peas are the best for pea shoots.

Well done @pete! It came with a plastic flower and as the plant gets bigger I increase the height. It's only a few years old. My previous one did flower, but the photo is on hard copy somewhere....
