New Across The Site / Re: Cold Weather Causes Problems
« Last post by mumofstig on Today at 08:29 »Same problem here, but the only choice I had, was to bring everything indoors and onto window-ledges. 
I really can't remember it still being cold, at night, at this time of year before - but that may just be selective memory, I suppose?

New Across The Site / Cold Weather Causes Problems
« Last post by John on Today at 00:30 »This cold weather is creating problems.

Grow Your Own / Re: Pea Moth
« Last post by Snow on Yesterday at 20:07 »Problem with later sowings is that mildew can badly affect a later crop of peas
I've not had problems with pea moth from sowing early March, but I've not grown a big maincrop pea plant like alderman for a few years. I just sow various sugar snaps and mange tout now, which maybe go to 4ft max so could well be a bit quicker
