General Gardening / Re: Growing potted-up plug plants in cell trays problem.

I have given up with dahlia, but have good success with begonias. I am sure correct watering plays a good part, but dahlias, I get those wrong. Will just buy a few bedding ones later. Mrs Bouquet

The same thing has happened with my dahlia tubers, some growing well, some half-hearted and some no shows

GG.

I've put it down to either low quality compost or perhaps I've over-watered them, so they've rotted

Grow Your Own / Tomato seedlings turned pale yellow??

« Last post by Hampshire Hog on Today at 10:07 »

Good morning all.
I have grown some outdoor tomatoes from seed and have been gradually acclimatising them to the outdoors whilst keeping them indoors overnight. Whilst I am getting close to planting them up in buckets I�m concerned by their colour. They seem to have gone from a healthy green to a pale yellow. I�m wondering whether they are worth saving or if I need to buy some new plants from a garden centre. Appreciate any thoughts.

OH NO!, start cutting down on carbs, slowly

I knew Id become a little more soft and doughy but that's a lot extra. An unfortunate product of poor portion control, now that I don't do anything physical anymore I should stop eating for a family of 4

Having said that, it's Friday, so a few oven chips tonight

, mushies and beans and whatever I can find in the freezer to go with them.

Good shoes are very important. Go to an old-fashioned shoe shop like I have in Lancaster and they should have some decent and lasting ones, plus they should be able to give you some advice too. They don't always cost mega-bucks either. Ask them if they do any in pink!
