Hi everyone,

 I have Aubergine plants on my allotment that my father in law grew. He comes and takes them as he wants them and we eat a few & give them away. Everyone comments how great they are!
Anyway, as the fruits have been taken off and there is no more I have been pulling the plant up. Now I have been told that I should have left them in because they will carry on growing more. I did notice some had flowers still but I presumed that it was too late in the year to grow more  :roll:

Am I going to be in trouble with the old boy when he next visits???

I think if there are no more fruits now there won't be time for any to grow to eatable size before the first frosts so I've been composting my plants too

Oh thank goodness for that I was really worried! Now I can sleep tonight
