Hi
Just 'signed up' and added a question in the section about overwintering lemons. Would be delighted for some input on whether to water the tree if it's being kept in a cool (10-12C) dark basement over the winter!
More generally, am growing a lot of our own veg and herbs and am trying to cultivate a Meditteranean feel to a section by the back of the house, with a decent-sized fig tree (which produced several-dozen good figs last season) and a new lemon tree, which came with 2 near-ripe lemons but now must have 15+ green lemons about the size of golf balls. I'm hoping this will over-winter OK so we have a good crop of lemons next year.
Look forward to hearing from those with a similar interest.
Cheers
