Sandra Lewis- My guest vegetable gardener this week



This is the last in my mini series this summer.

Sandra Lewis -Yoga teacher
In her 2nd year of vegetable gardening.

Best bits
Runner beans, Beetroot, Carrots and Potatoes

Worst bits
"Parsnips didn't germinate" says Sandra"and the leeks suffered from leek moth, I chopped them off and they came again, this time I covered them in fleece".

Things you'd do differently next year
"I'd germinate the parsnips indoors by putting the seed in with soil and popping in a margarine tub, then plant out when ready"

Sandra added" I grow my own because I want to eat organic veg, using no chemicals. I also get an organic veg box delivered too, we eat a lot of vegetables!"
