We have had a terrible summer in west of Scotland, many days the temp in the conservatory has struggled to go above 20. Yesterday we didn't get the rain that was forecast (have some now) but it was overcast and relatively cool all day, the thermometer hung around 20 all day with the door closed and the windows open (if I don't open something humidity goes right up).
I might take to growing weeds, they seem to be thriving, everything else is struggling!
Seriously though, I have quite a lot of green tomatoes forming, just hoping for some late season warmth to get them ripened - it could stay warm until the end of September, but first it will need to get warm.
Aye Lyn I think I will try earlier planting, first year for me trying and I didn't sow them until last week in March, think I'll do mid-late Feb next year.

We are growing bush varieties this year but weather was so bad I never got them out
of the Greenhouse is full of huge bushes that have tiny little toms very slowly going red
we are south west Scotland and today is raining again after a promising start!
