Toby Buckland presents his first programme of Gardeners' World
tonight.

excellent prog which I've recorded. Did you see his raised veggie
beds? That's what I want for next year

I thought he did well. I loved his idea of a turf in a seed tray

my brother has been doing that for years !

Ray raises ours in a compost bag then chucks the emergent seedlings onto the
required places but in a small garden the seed tray idea would do for most
people. And to be fair, a lot of people won't have thought of it and GW is
for gardeners at all states of expertise. I really liked his manner and
open character.

Oh yes I entirely agree with you, I wasn't being dismissive just surprised
to see something suggested that I've known about for years

I suppose it's a bit like urg. The same questions arise over and over again
because new and/or younger people are coming to gardening as beginners.
We've noticed a very welcome increase in the number of young people who come
to the Nursery now, whereas when I first knew it, 9 years ago, almost all
the customers were around 40 and older.
