WE too struggled and plan a polytunnel for next year so at least when it is pissing down we can get out and do something! Re Rupert's comment - you can get organic slug pellets - made of iron phospphate which only kills slugs and not the animals that may eat the dead slugs. And uneaten pellets break down into iron and phosphate which feeds yer plants!! Hey Alison sound slike you did well!

Not organic, but the only way to get some stuff to produce any food! I have also found that growing the seeds in small pots inside, to get them going, helps! I just wish i had a bit more space ... my few square feed does well, but i would love much more!
