sallykate Mar 2017 8:12pm, 10 Mar 2017 4,875 posts	0 sallykate I'm in! Am going to try three growing methods: 1. Direct in the soil - which is best but I managed just one plant last year from about 20 seeds, largely due to slugs & snails 2. Direct in a big pot 3. Start in small pots and transplant once big and strong enough to withstand a bit of attack from rampant molluscs.
