    What's Looking Good In June 2024

    It would probably be better to remove the flower bud, you want all the plants energy going into its roots.

    Courgettes leaves yellow and green

    I reckon it's due to the weather. It's been a lot cooler this year so things like courgettes are suffering. My pumpkins and courgettes are the same.

    Please suggest ideas to transform plot!

    This is what I would do as well. It can be done quickly and without too much effort.

    First time tomato growing

    I always start feeding when the flowers come, works for me. Once the flower truss shows it means the plant has switched from vegetative growth to reproduction mode.
