ooohhh its frosty out there...
I have just been out and set some broad beans in troughs -I have left it until December as I set some in November and the mouse had them away lol... hopefully by now they should be tucked away for winter (although I have put the troughs on the table outside so it will take them longer to find them -hopefully)
I have set :-
- Aguadulce
- Jubilee Hysor
If the ones I have just set don't all make it then I will set some more in January... Save all your toilet roll tubes -they make great root trainers, simply 3/4 fill with compost, pop the bean in and cover with more compost, then stand up in a nice sturdy container and keep moist.
I do them on the spare bedroom window sill, by watering from the bottom you encourage the roots to dig down and get nice strong plants. Plus, when it comes to planting out you plant the whole tube -which saves disturbing the roots.
Again, I will go into more detail and do photos when the season starts

Hey MrsM! Great to see your blog online! I look forward to reading more over the coming year!
Hi MrsM, welcome to blogland! I'm another who's been following you on MSE, (mainly I'm a lurker), and am really impressed with what you achieve.
I'm adding you to my readers list so I don't miss a post :-D

Hi
ME AGAIN....just another thought....I see that you have made the same decision as I have about comments (ie not to check them out first before they "post"). I havent found that to be a problem. I will just leave things as is in that respect unless I find commenters leaving objectionable ones ever. To date - over a year in Blogland - there has just been a couple of spam comments that I have had to delete. So - you're okay to leave things as is on that front. You'll soon see if leaving comments "open" the same way I have is a problem.
Even with leaving comments "open" in this way - there is the mechanism to delete any unwanted comments no problem should you feel the need at any point. You will - almost certainly - get a bit of spam somewheres along the line - but it aint a problem (just take it as a compliment - you will obviously have received a noticeable number of "hits" for your blog to have come to spammers' attention) - I just deleted those coupla comments and 'twas sorted.

Hi Ceridwen
now im confuddled as I have set the time to GM + 1hr for me..so heck knows how I alter it to make the times of comments different lol...
I take it everyone else can see the comments left by others?
If so Im going to delete the bit about the reason for " my location"from your post if thats Ok..Im not happy to have that on there at the moment...
thankyou so much for your imput.. I can do the frilly typing bit -but the technical bits don't half confuddle me !!!!
Hi Mrs Mac!
Welcome to blogland! I have added you to my bloglist and am looking forward to finding out how much more I can grow without digging up the whole garden!

Could be that you need to set the time at G.M. - rather than G.M. +1 hour. (clocks going back/forth in Britain). Hm....come to think of it - I better check my blog times -because of clock having gone back.
ceridwen
NB The times on all things on your blog - your posts and our comments - will be the same - so its just one time set for both.
