I've just bought one of their flasks from church - hadn't realised it was by Chilly until I looked at the box!

Grow Your Own / Re: Cucumber plant stem damaged.
« Last post by Fisherman on Today at 19:25 »As a precaution just sow a couple more seeds to grow on. My last sowings of cucumber will be in early June and they will still produce a good crop later in the year (as good as earlier spring sown seed). These are grown under glass but I guess there would be no difference if grown outside assuming they were of the right variety.

Grow Your Own / Re: Slugs (again)
« Last post by Fisherman on Today at 19:19 »Over winter I tried a mixture of Marmite, Plain Flour and Sugar mixed with warm water in beer type home made traps. They caught hundreds of slugs especially the little black underground ones that you don't see during the day. No reason to think dried yeast won't work. The mixture does start to ferment after a few days especially in warmer weather.

Grow Your Own / Re: Sunchocola Tomato
« Last post by Cavolo Hero on Today at 18:50 »My new variety is Costoluto Florentino on the recommendation of this forum.
As I already grow Stupice, Galina, Black Krim, Honeycomb, Sweet Million, Tigrella, Orange Banana (not grown for a few years and giving another chance) , Grushovka & Latah, Crimson Crush and primabella I don't have a huge capacity for new varieties!
[can anyone work out which seed company I'm a fan of]
That’s another lovely lot of variation Potty Plotty Lotty - I can see we have Black Krim and Tigerella in common
I have been given a couple of Marmandes today so need to add that to my list
Gardeners really are the most generous of people!

« Last post by mumofstig on Today at 16:22 »OH NO!, start cutting down on carbs, slowly - see where that takes you before trying anything too hard. It works for me whenever I reach my red line weight....The serious diet started two days ago.Is there a none serious type ? I really should do something too - I put a battery in the bathroom scales yesterday as my knee has started to play up, I've added 2.5 stone since ML died.
