BitterJalapenoJr I think come next spring, we will try chillies, tomatoes, onions, carrots, beets and various herbs. I need to replace all the compost in the planters which will be a ballache on the fourth floor. I am half considering a gradual removal if compost by discreetly scattering a few handful off the balcony into the street every day from November. The rain will wash it away pretty much daily.

BitterJalapenoJr We had a really successful season in the anazing summer of 2018 with a raised bed. Got really good peas, baby gem lettuce, onions and really great cherry tomatoes which I thought was unheard of here. Also got some small success with some root veg. Would hope to do more of the same. Chillies are usually a challenge like tomatoes. Would you agree? September 8 11:27 PM
BitterJalapenoJr Yes, a shocking summer. That's unfortunate. We haven't attempted to grow on the balcony for a few years but we are on a waiting list for an allotment. Have you had success in previous years? I do love the tang of pickled jalapenos but overall when it comes to fresh chillies and bottled sauces, I can't get enough of the habanero/scotch bonnet.
