Looking fantastic Bones!…love all the flowers - have you noticed a large difference with reduced pests since growing them?

Not thought about it until you said, but no we don't really get much pest damage at all in the PT. Some slight slug damage but the resident frog is always active.

Actually towards greenhouse door. There is a road in front of the house: only a tiny one, which doesn't go anywhere except to fizzle out into a path. Too many tomatoes and an aubergine evey 8 days or so.

Greenhouse peppers are coming into their own now - 20 Friggitello fruit on one plant.

[Mr Bones]

Palermo peppers are doing well too. Seed was originally saved from supermarket veg (about 2017)

PT is winding down now, still a few bits left but will soon be ready to plant up with overwintering crops.

Oh the end! Going away next week so mostly clearly it out and planting lettuce. But hey ho, avoided the dreaded blight and still have some warriors still standing.


Sad looking tunnel, some toms still to sort.




A trooper basil plant that refuses to give up so it can stay

[Mr Bones]

Winter crops coming along nicely.

Clouds of SO₂ from burning sulphur candle. It's a filthy process so picture taken from outside!
