@Ergates, and those trying the puzzles… I’ve written some hints to help with the puzzles should you wish to look. I’ll attach as a thumbnail pic so it’s easier to ignore if you don’t want a clue/yet.

Anyone struck fig tree cuttings before?
Indeed. It'll likely be breaking dormancy in around a month and could be fully rooted by June. Unless this house sale goes incredibly smoothly, there should be enough time.

What are we doing in the garden 2026
I sowed Broad beans and peas into rootrainers. Potted on some Aonuim cuttings, they have rooted really well in a 50:50 mix of mpc and perlite. I think putting them in terracotta pots helped too.
