They are perfect for lumpy mashed potatoes !

Leave them on the plant untill paper dry. It may be benificial if you can arrange something to hold the peas (I was thinking something like a paper bag but then it may rain) should the pod open up while your not there and the peas get lost on the ground. This is how they would normally...

o oops sorry

Only an idea 'cos I've managed to blag some 6" diameter plastic tubing from local construction workers. Never fear, I'm still going for my tomato and onion record.

We have a ginormouse grape vine growing in the largest of our greenhouses. It was already there from the previous owners. We virtually do nothing to it except tidy it up after it dies back. A friend of ours takes the ripe grapes for wine and some of the leaves too. It looks like they used wire...
