    Plant labels

    I also use the coloured labels as no need to write on them if you make a note of which colour applies to which plant. NB don't lose your notebook :biggrin:

    What's your weather like 2026

    Another wasted day, I'm losing count now how many days of wet gloom we are getting. Drizzle for the most part and hardly a hint of brightness, feeling cold with the dampness at 7c.
