Depends what you want it for - GYO has a lot of photos in as well as more recipes than the other gardening ones, Kitchen Garden goes into a bit more depth, and for an organic slant - Organic Gardening Mag.

Forgot to add that there are a few threads on the GYO magazine:

Havent seen, GYO yet will order it from work, but I have a subscription to Kitchen Garden and I think its great, especially the bit about the hens, as I am going to get hens on my Lottie,The girl 3 plots down has hens and a cockeral, Its something I have wanted for years.I had hens several years ago, and once you`ve had them,you will always want them again. :)

Did not get much done this weekend - earthed up some potatoes and a bit of digging. Had too many family things (barbie today). Did meet Kitty at an allotment sale though. :)

I do not subscribe to anything - I bought two books - Dr Hassayon's Vegetable Expert and, because he said throw chemicals at everything, Geof Hamilton's Organic Gardener. I then just used the inernet - http://www.gardenaction.co.uk/ and http://www.keirg.freeserve.co.uk/diary/default.html were both very useful. Others specific to you are picked up along the way. Its a steep learning curve but enthusiasm helps.

You've got a thingyeral? lol. GYO has a bit more on smallholding stuff than Kitchen Garden mag.

I prefer Cosmo- EJ!

redclanger - I had Sindy.

Never try to type and hold a conversation with a moping teenager, she has`nt got a thingyeral, but she does have a cockeral.

discovery · « **Reply #12 on:** May 16, 2005, 13:20:20 »

cockeral

discovery · « **Reply #13 on:** May 16, 2005, 13:22:06 »

Every time I type in the name for a male chicken,the word cockeral comes up, so i will call it a rooster.

Yes there is some sort of filter that prevents you from posting the word thingy. ;D begins with c and ends with a k

Have you lot been eating Mushrooms?

I bought a Grow Your Own Magazine on Thursday, sowed the Butternut Swash seeds that day and the first shoots came through yesterday (Sunday) I am most impressed!

To post the word 'cockerel', highlight part of the word between the initial C and the K, and press the red A to the right of the row of BBC tags above the space where you type. Ignore what comes up and post it.

cockeral Mm! that's clever, where did you learn that ??? 8)

I help to moderate an ancient coin board which uses the same software, so I've had time to pick a few things up.
