seeds

Ok companion growing, lets look at carrots, now they are a very small seed so why not mix a packet of radish seed with your carrots?? Radishes mature very quickly so you can pull them long before the carrots mature and also less thinning of the carrots. One think with carrots though is as you thin them you're releasing the smell of carrots into the air which in turn attracts carrot root fly why can quickly destroy a crop. The simple effective remedy is to plant your carrots between rows of marigolds

What do you mean by thining joe?
 
Toilet roll tubes are great for starting off Sweetcorn and Sweet peas as you can plant the whole thing and not disturb the roots.:)
