sorry Lenora - couldn't resist!

I have one pot of tomatoes which are going red, amazing since the plant itself looks like it suffered from drought conditions. My nasturtiums have blackfly so any dreams I might have cerished about making salad with them is well and truly gone. I'm not especially organic - just too lazy to spray! No but seriously I'm trying to avoid most of the chemical stuff in the garden so no surprise I get blackfly and bindweed to contend with.

I have a similar problem with drainage to you I think Lenora - the whole back garden was like a swimming pool through the winter. Might try for more pots next year, but only if I can be sure I'll make the effort to water them. Tell me about this summer's crop again next spring when I'm looking to plant and I will really apprecate the inspiration!

Kerri.
