Jambutty - you will be pleased to know that Weedol (diquat) is much less hazardous than Agent Orange - but better not grow veg for quite a few years

My mum grew Rocket successfully this year in a pot.

A handy tip is to rub the edge of the container with Vaseline, as it stops the slugs from getting in, and eating it before you do.
