    Tomato Growing 2026

    The Walipini Project (aka greenhouse shenanigans)

    Something like that. Control the flow a bit and tank it with maybe a solar pump. They're usually bugger all use of course so I might just leave it well alone!

    Latest moan from you and me 2026

    The advice given out here in norwich, is to not give money to beggars. It wasn't long ago they used to come in for the day and then go back to where they lived, it seemed quite lucrative for some.

    You're welcome. It's a good plant to have a go with as the success rate is high. Maybe 80% of cuttings will take and grow on happily.
