Paul also has loads of ideas for garden projects to improve your crop, from raising seedlings and building a mini greenhouse to managing rain water and heat-proofing your garden. And don't forget the food!

  • Raising seedlings

  • Making a raised bed from old pallets
  • Growing fruit trees from cuttings
