Hi everyone,

I've been searching for a good UK gardening discussion board for a
while now and seems I've found one! Originally from Canada, I now
live in Oxford and am a complete gardening beginner. Not having the
confidence to try a full allotment, I have a few patches of space in
my back garden plus a patio to try pots on. I'm trying to dabble in
growing a few 'easy' veg, herbs and some colourful flowers. All
advice appreciated!!! Today I'm going to read through your posts and
FAQs and see what I can learn before asking questions.

In the last 2 night something ate all my lettuce I can't imagine
how slugs could do that much damage so must be something bigger.
Hmpf.

Oh, and I already have a seed potato in a pot so maybe I can
compete?!

Hi Kimmer,
I'm based in Oxford too. Have an allotment in Wolvercote and am a
novice at this blogging lark.
I'm probably going to be blocked for mentioning this but I've set up a
free discussion forum on my site so that people can share their
questions and answers. It's www.complete-gardens.co.uk look in on line
services and a drop down menue shows Garden Forum. I set it up for
people like me who are keen on gardening but pretty clueless - I'm
just a simple photographer who wants to learn. It's quite a lively
forum and free.
If you want to know more please feel free to contact me neil@complete-

Perhaps you should have given the link
http://www.complete-gardens.co.uk/forum/ which avoids having to plough
through loads of overpriced rubbish
