    Tomato Growing 2026

    Yeah it's always difficult to find heritage seeds or plants locally, they only sell the varieties that the general public recognise, I get mine online

    What's your weather like 2026

    Wind has dropped, been dry all day but chilly when we went for a walk round the village, only 6 degrees and a frost forecast for most nights for the next week, so not planted anything yet.
