The message
from "Andy Hunt" contains these words:

Hi all,


I have some South-facing window sills, and was planning to attempt to grow
some edibles over the winter. One window box is above a radiator, but the
other two aren't.


I thought maybe lettuce would grow,


Probably be slow, and very straggly unless you provided them with a
daylight lamp.

or that I could maybe have a go at
chillis (too cold?).


They will continue growing, but slowly, and they'll be spindly, unless
you - you've guessed - look up to the lettuce answer!

Any suggestions for these window boxes would be much appreciated!


Cover them with polythene and grow mushrooms?
