    Tomato Growing 2025

    My cuttings of Chocolate Drop are overwintering quite well so far. The sweet peppers went in today. So I popped in a few micro dwarf seeds into the propagator to keep them company.

    Pulled the fridge out, cleaned the drip tray over the compressor and the floor, wiped the top and sides of the fridge. Then repeat with the freezer.
