Just caught the last 5 mins. Is it any good. The
presenter seems familiar, but can't place her?

I recorded it last night. Presenter is Alys Fowler ( I always think
of her as Alys the stick, she is so slim) from Gardener's World. Hope
it is as good as it promises to be.

Rather early to judge. I found it less than inspiring although there
were suggestions of promising future programmes. I hope it goes well.

As a one off it was a bit weak, I think as a series they are going to
struggle.

Thanks all, doesn't look like I missed much. The 5
minutes I saw were mainly indoor gardening. Perhaps
things will improve as the growing season unravels.
I'll record next weeks'.

No it mostly outside - and some cooking as well.

The basic premise is to get as much fruit and veg out of the garden,
whilst having the plants integrated into the whole garden, rather than
in a separate plot.

It was ok, more of an inspirational program, than hard facts how to do
it type thing - which I don't have a problem with. But would have like
a bit more info about some things.

Perhaps things will improve as the growing season unravels. I'll record
next weeks'.


You could always watch it on iPlayer

I enjoyed it, and never knew you could use dried peas for producing
'pea shoots' for salad. Only needs one good tip per program to make it
worth watching.

Last week pea /bean family, next week Tomatoe.

I'd be interested in what tomato tips they have to
offer. The last 3 years I've grown them direct into the
g/house soil floor but the yield has been low.
Previously I'd had heavy crop from growbags but the
taste had been a bit 'watery'.
