I don't get much of a problem with slugs eating my Hostas, I grow them in Clay pots which dry out quickly and I don't think slugs like crawling up them. I've also got some in hanging baskets but slugs don't mind climbing up there ... however I haven't noticed much slug damage on those Hostas either.

What's your weather like 2026
Good morning all. Rather cloudy and a lot cooler than yesterday, a fresh breeze. Drizzle followed by light rain showers is our forecast for today and they reckon we'll hit 11c as a top temp.

Fantastic pictures, thanks for posting. I remember the Apollo missions especially the early ones. Unbelievably by the last one or two 16-17 they almost seemed routine, even though space missions are never routine. There have been enough tragedies over the years to emphasise that.
