About a month ago, I put the tomatoes and cucumbers in the greenhouse border with the compost on the top. They have seriously struggled and have never looked healthy the moment they went in. Used the same compost for some runner beans. 1 bean out 24 germinated. Same statistic for the peas that were planted. Thanks John Hello,

I dug up the ones that were left from last year that have popped up. I dug a deephole and transplanted the plants -watered REALLY well. Hope it works. I “moved” some potatoes.

Isn't it great to have a summer for a change? I don’t see it will do any harm at this stage, unless they’re where you want to plant something else. Isn’t it great to have a summer for a change?

Regards Martyn Ewers Hi,
