oh right never knew that I was growing yellow courgette next to them so better not use them then

I'm glad to say.

Nurseries often replant young trees a couple of times I believe. It's done to create a compact root ball of fine roots.Yours look fairly young, not sure how long they have been there, but should move OK once the leaves have dropped would be the best time I'm thinking.A good stake might be...

@all -Many thanks for the useful replies. I won't do anything drastic just yet, but may pull a few tomorrow and cut them in half to see if the potatoes are healthy on the inside to put my mind at ease. And of course it's a perfect excuse to maybe eat a few tomorrow.I first noticed the leaves...

I'd spend the time getting rid of those nasty weeds. I've marestail too, blinking nuisance. I like to grow spinach and chard. Both stand through the dismal Scottish weather. It depends on what you like to eat. Lettuce can be grown too. I don't like it so don't bother.

They are actually perfectly OK to eat so don't remove them next time.

Sienna, yum yum . Looks delicious But, custard? Custard? You need Cornish Clotted Cream with it

I have used black treacle for years mainly to feed the micro herd

Thanks for that and the pictures

@JWK Thanks, I'll give it a go then, surely it cannot hurt

Peter best of luck mate in doing them

Well, I finally went on holiday for two weeks, crossing my fingers leaving my garden and vegetables unattended, given I have no direct water to the garden. If the weather forecast are to be trusted, it did not rain for 7 days, with high temperatures, and then it rained a few times heavily. Given...

Your welcome mate...especially members who could ID them for you

@HarryS I forgot to say in the cinnamon bread pudding where it calls for half and half use evaporated milk.

You probably know this but those fruit are not yet ripe, you need to let them fully ripen before harvesting them for seed.

We know Mike we`ll all be saying hail watsits for you

Buy an ericaceous soil compost ricky. Peat and john innes are completely different. JI is a blended soil mix.....a basic formula for producing an ideal growing medium. Peat has hardly any nutrients in it You can add flowers of sulphur to make soil more acidic or to maintain an acid soil but...
