    Hi everyone,

    I'm new to posting on here today. Found the forum whilst looking for help with growing some of the things I've been trying the last year or so. I've not had much luck in finding answers to some of my questions til I had a nosey on here :D - I've been having a trawl through to see if I can get some advice on lemongrass - it only sort of worked last year. [​IMG]
    I've got so many packs of seeds for things I've never grown before, but I want to try out. I am limited to my patio and the number of pots I can fit on there though. I may need to think about what things can go in the same pots together! I also have a plastic greenhouse which I think - finally - I have managed to sort out today so that it doesn't keep getting blown over in the high winds and sending plants and compost everywhere - I lost a few strawberry plants, and I think my grapevine was far too traumatised by the whole thing and may be dead now. [​IMG]
    I think I'll leave it empty for a little while, just to see if I have sorted it out properly, then maybe I'll be able to think risking some plants in there again!
    Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself, and I'm sure I'll be spending many more hours on here looking for advice! Though maybe not today, as I've just noticed how late it is, and I've got to get up bright and early at 7 tomorrow! Another lovely working week begins! [​IMG]

    Hi everyone,

    Thanks for the warm welcome and the pretty pictures! [​IMG]

    I'm hoping to have a try at loads of things this year, so definitely will need all the help I can get! I'll be nearly as busy on here as out in the garden! :D
