I have a number of seedlings on the go. It's still not quite warm enough to plant seedlings out, I am hoping that end of October will be warm enough.
Every year I like to try a new plant - last year it was sweet potato. I didn't get much of a crop but I worked out where I need to plant them to get a better crop. I took some cuttings before the end of autumn so as soon as its warm enough I will be plant the cuttings out in the garden.
This year I am trying pepino melons and litchi tomatoes. They both are part of the tomato, potato and eggplant family. The pepino cuttings seem to be easy to strike. If they grow well and the fruit is worth eating I will take cuttings in autumn and keep them over winter.
