    Hi from sunny Surrey. Complete amateur here. I can dig, I can plant, but I have no real idea about what I'm doing - so looking forward to learning!

        Hiya Galaxy! Don't worry about being an amateur (I'm pretty useless :heehee:), there's all sorts of gardeners here, we all chip in and that's what makes it so great! :blue thumb:

                      Welcome aboard from another Surrey resident @Galaxy :sign0016:

                      Skill level is unimportant (I knew only slightly more than nothing when I joined a few years back, and am still learning to this day!)

                            Good morning @Galaxy and :sign0016: to our little corner of the cyber world.
                            You will learn a lot, that's for sure, by being here reading, asking questions and by doing :heehee:

                            One of the - and I think quite important - things to get your head around with gardening from Day One is this: you can live in the same area as another member, plant the same seeds, use the same methods of seed starting and ... still you may get different results! :doh: The point is, do not be discouraged if it isn't the positive result the other person had! The main aim of the game is to try :thumbsup:

                            Looking forward to getting to know you around the forums :)
